House On The Hill Size:S Peeling paint and weathered timberA timber framed house stands alone on an exposed hill, its bleached facade open to sun and wind through broken windows. Structures like this one represent the long arc of rural settlement across the Snowy Monaro and Hunter Valley, from the selector's gamble of the 1860s onward to the progressive abandonment that followed. Part of the A Place to Call Home series.
