This corrugated iron shed stands exposed on a windswept hilltop. Its weathered walls show deep rust and faded paint, silently marking a past era of rural labour. Dust motes dance in the dim interior.

A small timber shed sits low on a grassed hilltop, its gable face open to the paddock. White-painted cladding marks the front wall. Dark timber framing holds the structure together. A weathered post-and-rail fence extends from the left side, leaning hard under its own weight. Mature cypress and macrocarpa crowd behind, their canopies dwarfing the building. Yellow wildflowers scatter through the long grass. The sky is flat and grey.

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.
