Dalgety Valley tiled roof Ando Shack at Rural NewA solitary timber and iron structure sits in the Dalgety Valley, its faded slab walls and rusted corrugated iron slowly giving way to the surrounding pasture. Buildings like this one represent the full arc of rural settlement on the Snowy Monaro: squatter huts of the 1830s, selector cottages from the 1860s onward, and the pastoral infrastructure of the wool boom era.
