Wool classing at Jimbour Shed on the Darling Downs, Southern Queensland, ca. 1907

from State Library of Queensland

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  Much conjecture remains as to the meaning of Jimbour’s name. The Barungam Aboriginal people native to the region referred to it as Gimba, meaning white clouds. It could also be translated to mean good pastures. Luckily, Jimbour is blessed with both. But the long and storied history of Jimbour entwines and aligns with the history of European settlement in both the Darling Downs, and in Greater Queensland. 1841 Jimbour Station came into existence in 1841 when Henry Dennis settled in the area and took up the Jimbour run on behalf of the first owner, Richard Scougall, who had come to Australia from Scotland in 1832.

  The farmworkers are using a windlass to strip the usable hide from a beast. Probably one which has been shot using the longarm.
