A fibro and corrugated iron shed sits low in a shallow gully, dwarfed by the green hillside rising behind it. The hip roof is streaked deep orange with rust. One window is broken. A timber door hangs open. Scattered around the base, old machinery parts and metal scraps sink into the grass. A red dirt track cuts two ruts down the slope, forking as it reaches level ground. No fences. No stock. Just the building, the hill, and the quiet weight of open pastoral country.

The series
The Woolshed
The Woolshed is a series of working and former working woolsheds across south-eastern New South Wales, predominantly the south-east hinterland and Snowy Monaro region. Most are timber-framed and clad in corrugated iron or timber weatherboards, weathered through decades of use. Some still shear; many do not, as farming priorities have shifted and shearing technology has changed. Woolsheds were sometimes important community meeting points, used for dances and other gatherings. The buildings were always built for function - appearance was never a factor in their design.
