Due to the forecasted high winds, the Museum will be closed today (Sunday 25 October 2026).
The safety of our visitors, staff, and volunteers must always come first. We’re sorry for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding. We look forward to welcoming you back to the Museum on Wednesday 28 October.
This poster warns of potential accidents with a shearer with the incorrect use of chock blocks, with the message ‘Stop! These chock blocks may jerk the shearer & trap that man’.
