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.
