What was once a vast industrial precinct in Launceston. These iconic sawtooth buildings were storage for wool and were an important visual reminder of the precincts industrial heritage. Sadly they were demolished and whilst machinery was meant to be reinstated with interpretive panels when the area was redeveloped, this never happened. Sadly there isn’t much to go off today of what once stood - it’s important, even if places are demolished , to have clear visual reminders of our past so we can appreciate where we’ve come from as a community. All too often this happens with industrial heritage. I worked on documenting the precinct for around 10 years forming and creating an important portfolio of photographs so there is a detailed record of this now unrecognisable site. Selected limited edition prints from the Woolsheds and Silos precinct are available in my online store here
