Photograph of Calder's Shed, Tarnagulla, Calder's Shed, Tarnagulla, late 1960s

Historical information

Murray Comrie Collection.

The building depicted was previously used for Barnes' Store at Waanyarra, later relocated to Tarnagulla.

William Barnes was a tailor at Tarnagulla and Waanyarra in the 1860s. By the late 1870s the family was living at Grassy Flat.

The building was located on the south-eastern corner of the Gladstone-Victoria Street intersection, and for many years housed the chaff-cutting operations of the Calder family. The building gradually fell into disrepair, and was completely dismantled in the 1990s.
