Alexander The Great Motel at New South Wales

A single window frames a quiet pastoral landscape through weathered timbers

Corrugated iron in faded pale blue and rust red wraps a timber-framed shearing shed raised on wooden stumps

The terminus opened for passenger services on 21 November 1921

Loose wiring drops from the ceiling

Backyard dunes Alexander The Great Motel atThe backyard of Big Hill Post Office, photographed in 2020. Weeds push through cracked concrete and corrugated iron walls carry rust and peeling paint in layers. The post office operated from 1 November 1869 until 1945, serving the small settlement that had grown around Hannibal Hawkins Macarthur's grazing country north of Marulan. Part of the Big Hill Post Office series.
