Overhead rails and support arms remain suspended in their original configuration above the pig kill floor at Blayney Abattoir. A sign fixed to a column near the centre warns that unauthorised use of computer equipment will result in disciplinary action. Red staining marks the concrete in irregular patches, and a wire cage rests on the floor where debris has gathered around it.

About this print
This view across the pig kill floor leads toward the chillers, where the line once continued through the darker recesses of the plant.
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.
