For interested parties, here is St Mary Magdalene's church at Wisemans Ferry depicted in a lovely painting at SLNSW.

Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons Wonderful painting - trying to find exactly where this church was in Wisemans Ferry. I think "J.O.M." is "I.O.M." as in Isle of Man! King Williams College (1833) - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_William's_College . I wonder if Edward Hungerford was a pupil there? The chapel on the right; see the window match at original size -

The Wiseman's Ferry Church fell into disrepair by the 1880s, was demolished in 1888 by the "Roads Department", and rebuilt higher on the hill. See trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/72558896

Brilliant in one word !
Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
beachcomber australia Thanks Beachcomber - Isle of Man - of course! The little church at Wisemans Ferry looks almost as if was meant to add to the landscape as a romantic ruin. Although the 'new' one is just as sweet: www.hawkesbury.net.au/activities/c16.html There are two passenger records for an E Hungerford (b c 1863) that I could find, one onboard the POTOSI, arrived 17 July 1882 in Sydney from London and 24 June 1884 on the AUSTRAL , London - Sydney. Perhaps these vessels sailed via Tonga and New Zealand at this time.

See note on Photo. If it is oats or wheat we are in the wintertime as no leaves on trees. Normally it would be thrashed in the Autumn if it was for winter feed ?
beachcomber australia said:
Sharon Corbet Well done; no idea how you worked that out! Flickr is sometimes helpful! Hall Caine, novelist, lived in the castle for thirty-eight years (1896-1931 acccording to Wikipedia above) - manxliterature.com/browse-by-author/hall-caine/ Via Culture Vannin . . .
