The woolshed is an enduring symbol of rural Australia—a place of hard work, history, and resilience. Once the heart of sheep stations, these structures played a crucial role in the wool industry that helped shape the nation's economy.
Photographed across the southeast hinterland and Snowy Monaro region of New South Wales, this collection captures the raw beauty of woolsheds, from their weathered corrugated iron and timber facades to the empty shearing floors that once bustled with shearers and stockmen.
Many of these sheds, once vital to their communities, now stand silent, relics of changing times, advances in technology, and shifts in farming practices. Yet, their presence on the landscape remains as powerful as ever—a reminder of Australia’s agricultural heritage.
Through these images, experience the atmosphere of these timeworn structures, where history lingers in every weathered board and rusted nail.
