Shearers Quarters Size:XL described as the biggest independentSunlight cuts through the collapsing roof of a shearers' quarters somewhere in rural New South Wales, catching dust in the still air above peeling paint and splintered timber. Structures like this housed the seasonal workforce that kept pastoral runs running through the wool boom years and well beyond. The building is returning to the land by degrees.
