As with so many of the Tyrrell collection photos - much has changed over the years, and yet - not.

Earliest date: ca. 1903 - external work on Bank of Australasia completed
Latest date: 1906 - work on Challis House yet to start, or in an early stage...I'm not sure when work on the 1906-08 Commercial Banking Co additions would have become visible...
Similar view, but somewhat earlier

Kind of reverse view...taken at about the same time...but not the same occasion...there are some differences

trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/165000525 - the Sydney Mail, 25th October, 1905...this Sydney Mail pic looks to have been taken a few minutes later...
The Sydney Mail's caption: 'Wethers moving quietly into the shearing shed. The mob is led by a pet sheep, which is used as a decoy.'
On p. 1058 the Sydney Mail states that most of the pics that appeared in its 'Harvesting the Golden Fleece' pictorial were taken at Belltrees station, near Scone, in the Upper Hunter Valley, in NSW...so that might be the location...
These other Kerry & Co pics appeared in the Sydney Mail 'Harvesting the Golden Fleece' pictorial
