Falling down

This is inside the derelict Mechanics Institute building, which is located in strange isolation alongside the Calder Highway in a small place called Kurting in rural Victoria, Australia.

 

The building was built in 1918 and was used to host stalls to attract local townspeople. Inside the building it is eerily haunting with this lone chair and dirt ground with odd artefacts. I'm sure there are stories that this chair could tell if you stayed long enough.

 

I first saw this building when driving past in February this year. This trip last week I made sure I stopped to investigate on my way between Bendigo and Charlton.
