The corrugated iron roof of this Colac garden shed slowly collapses. Sunlight filters through gaps in its rotting timber walls, illuminating dust inside. This small structure once served a large rural property.

04 FROM THE FIELD NOTES

A corrugated iron shed sits square to the frame, its walls stained deep rust-red. Two large sliding doors of unpainted galvanised steel fill the front face. A single louvred vent sits centred in the gable. Firewood is stacked against the left wall. Green grass thins to bare dirt in the foreground. Cumulus clouds build in a wide sky above the roofline.

The series

The Woolshed

2016 · 29 photographs

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.
