To build the sheepyards, Ted Pergande harvested slabs of granite from a nearby rock formation by heating the rock and then rapidly cooling it with water. The rock cleaved into slabs, which were transported the short distance to their present location. Located at the site are the remains of an original and prominent homestead and sheep yards that were constructed almost entirely from local granite. The sheep yards are made from large granite slabs that were drawn into position by horse sled from the nearby Wiacubbing Hill. These slabs were then placed upright out of the ground to make the fences of the sheep yards. The homestead was constructed using smaller round rocks held together by mortar.


This was Built 1910 all out of the Stone from the hill in the background in shot. Those slabs some are as big a 72 inch tv that make the walls of the race and holding pens. The home and the shed you see here wall and pillars made from smaller stones. Very Very quiet waking up here in the morning.




This is the Ruins of the home stead.
