Winchcombe Carson Woolstore

Woolstore constructed against the sandstone cliff of the former quarry. They used the terrain to develop a system of “gravity baling”. Heavy loads of wool came in at the Jones Street level and were moved easily through the store's display, examination and auction floors using chutes, to emerge at Wattle Street.
