About this print
This corridor once linked the kill floor to the chillers, lined with workers stamping, bagging and banding mutton for export.
Brett Patman
The series
Blayney Abattoir
At peak the Blayney Abattoir employed about 1,600 people, one of the largest workforces in Central West New South Wales. The site had been a butter factory and freezing works from at least 1900, converted to an abattoir in 1957. ANZCO Foods, the New Zealand owner since 1996, announced closure in March 1998 with about 600 workers given a week's pay.
