In Numbla Vale, a cluster of abandoned buildings stands. Their timber frames sag under the weight of years. Rust stains the corrugated iron roofs. Silence hangs heavy around these forgotten homes.

A cluster of buildings sits on a green rise under heavy, layered cloud. The main structure wears corrugated iron cladding stained deep rust-brown, its roof mottled with lichen and oxidation. A brick chimney leans slightly from one end. To the right, a smaller weatherboard cottage stands on low stumps, its galvanised roof still holding silver. A single timber power pole connects them by wire. Scattered rocks break through the grass. The light is low and warm, late afternoon.

The series
A Place to Call Home
A series of rural homesteads from the Snowy Monaro region of southern New South Wales, with a few from the Hunter Valley. Most were family homes left behind when a generation moved to town; others when the land could no longer be worked. The buildings are smaller than the industrial sites that anchor most of Lost Collective and tend to be older. Most are timber-framed.
