Nilpena Ediacara National Park Woolshed
Woolshed, 1385 Nilpena Rd, Nilpena, Adnyamathanha
This 19th century grand stone Woolshed is a link to rich Nilpena Ediacara National Park's pastoral history. It housed twenty shearers and served as depot shed for sheep brought in by surrounding stations. During the 1980s it was here that the Ediacaran Fossil rediscovery took flight by a visiting geology student Pam Haselnor and land owner Ross Fargher where they recognised locally quarried paving slabs of imprinted ripple rock as potential hosts of Ediacara Fossils and kick-started years of research.
Although shearing is now a part of the its distant past, the Woolshed provides an incredible event space and hosted many large gatherings, dinners, lunches, concerts and even film sets.
