Molong. Population 1,700.
The white European history of Molong began in 1822 when a government stockade was established near the town site as a stopover point for transportation teams going to the early convict settlement at Wellington. A couple of early squatters bought cattle here and in 1826 the government setup a small military and police outpost. Captain Charles Sturt visited Molong in 1828. Charles Sturt arrived as a personal assistant to Governor Ralph Darling of NSW with the expressed purpose of doing some exploration. His exploration expeditions began in 1828 when the Governor appointed him to lead an exploration party along the Macquarie River. Sturt, accompanied by explorer Hamilton Hume (a currency lad), travelled down the Macquarie River from Bathurst until they crossed the marshes before it flows into the Darling River. The first official squatting license in the Molong area was granted in 1832. The town site was gazetted in 1849 but land sales did not began until 1856 with the licensing of the Golden Fleece Hotel and the Freemason’s Hotel. Within a couple of years Molong (a Wiradjuri word for “place of many rocks”) had a Methodist Church (1858), an Anglican Church (1860), an early flourmill, houses, a school and a post service. In the boom years of the 1870s and 1880s many fine stone buildings were erected as farms producing wheat, sheep and wool prospered. Today most of the main street, Bank Street, is classified by the National Trust. Starting at the Railway Station. It was built for the opening of the railway in 1886. It was the rail terminus until 1893. A branch line to Dubbo was built in 1925. There is a gate keeper’s cottage near the level crossing. The railway line is on the main Sydney to Parkes (and Perth) line but passenger services stopped years ago. It is now the town library. A number of the main heritage buildings are:
Freemason’s Hotel, built as a single story hotel in 1856. It was rebuilt in 1911 with an upper floor.
Post Office Hotel. This fine structure was built as a hotel in 1872 and is now the Rural Lands Protection Board offices. After it closed as a hotel it became a bank for some years.
National Bank. This was built in 1883 as the Commercial Banking Company of Sydney. Later a NAB bank. It was restored in 1988. It is a superb Italianate or classical revival building with perfect symmetry.
Molong Stores. A fine two storey Italianate style shop and residence. Built in 1876.
Post Office. Despite earlier postal services this grand bank was not built until 1880. The second story was added in 1900 as the Post Master’s residence.
Pioneer Bakery. Next to the Post Office. Another fine old late 19th century shop and residence. Now the Pioneer Bakery. Built around 1895 to 1900.
Telegraph Hotel. Located opposite the Post Office this hotel was built in 1880 the year the telegraph reached Molong. Built with an arched entry to the rear courtyard for coaches and horses. Cast iron lacework veranda and refashioned with roof pediments circa 1910.
Commonwealth Bank. Mediterranean Art Deco style. Built in 1930 by architect E Henderson. Many Art Deco traits including barley twist columns, fan shells over windows, roof parapet with square in fills, curved corner entrance etc.
Cobb and Co Coach House. Located beside the village green is the old Cobb and Co coach house. Their NSW operations were based in Bathurst from 1862. The Molong stage house was on the Bathurst to Bourke route which covered 2,000 miles from the Macquarie River to the Darling River. Horses were changed every 16 miles on these relatively fast moving coaches. The coach house in Molong was built around 1875. When built it was beside the Royal Hotel erected in 1877, a necessary adjunct for travellers to obtain food and sometimes rest. The Royal Hotel burnt down in the 1940s. It is now used by local craft producers with the Bicentennial Embroidered Screen there and a collection of locally spun items.
Old brick cottage now the Market Craft Cottage. Built in 1860 as a Georgian style cottage residence and now a craft shop and Info Centre.
Town Hall. This was built in 1888. After World War One a new foundation stone was added in 1922 stating it was Soldiers Memorial Town Hall. It was designed in Italianate style with many classical features such as Ionic columns, broken triangular pediment above the entrance etc. The new stone project was funded by donations from residents.
Next to the Town Hall is the Anglican Church. The red brick 1905 Anglican Church with the large rose window was built with terracotta roof tiles. Next to it is the original St Johns Anglican Church built in local stone in 1860. It became the church hall in 1905.
Terrace houses. Opposite the old Anglican Church up the hill is a pair of two storey terraces. Built around 1890.
Wesleyan Methodist Church. Just beyond the newish red brick church is the old original 1857 Methodist Church. Built in local rubble with Gothic windows. The earliest church in Molong.
Catholic Church. Turn southwards in Edwards Street to see the two Catholic churched on the next corner. The rough stone church in Gothic style was built in 1880. Right on the corner is the large Gothic church with buttresses, corner turrets, and six section window in the gable and central entrance. It opened in 1916. Return to the Main Street.
A 10 minute walk away at 1 Edward Street is the fine Courthouse (1863) and Police Station (1878).
I am in the master bedroom looking out through the entrance door into the passageway. In the distance is the doorway to the garage and the entrance to the toilet is on the right of this picture. 4:05pm, Sunday the 5th of December, 2021.
This is a portrait of Cambodian Master Musician, Ieng Sithul, who I first met two weeks ago...with this shot taken yesterday (when I saw the Children of the Khmer show for the third time at this year's Edinburgh Fringe).
In Cambodia, he is one of the most popular recording artists and a regular host on TV. He survived the atrocities of the Khmer Rouge and now he uses his considerable talents to enrich and enhance the lives of a new generation in Cambodia.
He teaches classical wedding dance to a large class of students in Phnom Penh. In doing so, he is changing many lives for the better as well as preserving the heritage and cultural traditions of Cambodia.
Meeting the Children of the Khmer has been one of my most positive Fringe experiences ever. For the most part, we don't share a common language...but have still established a connection.
The World Festival at St George's West won a 'Spirit of the Fringe" award on Friday. It was richly deserved. In a year where there has been a shambolic ticketing system...and oppressively fussy High Street stewarding, this venue has demonstrated what the Fringe is all about.
My thanks are due to Toby, John, Dickie, Dickon, Carol and Jerome for letting me share in the experience. I also owe a vote of thanks to Alex Hewitt from The Scotsman for helping me to get permission to photograph Children of the Khmer in the first place.
However, most of all my thanks are due to Master Ieng Sithul and his fellow teachers. Cambodia is a country which has suffered greatly in the recent past, but it was inspirational to watch these talented students perform what they clearly love doing.
Please consider supporting the work of Cambodian Living Arts in some way.

I decided to go crazy and do a mix in the Master Bedroom of The Riptide by Architect Justi Barcelo, owner of JBC architecture.
I took the blue back round and mixed some woods with blacks and browns. Threw in some fab zebra skins to brighten it all up.
I found a fabulous Illustrator on Instagram called Tabula.hr. I got permission to use his work on SL.Then added his amazing picture in the red, black and white to highlight the room.
The Bright white Hanging ball Lamps and tieback curtains, by Catta Grizot of Atrium, give it the class the room called for. All together you have once again my Eclectic Style of Decorating. Come see it in person to experience the textures and life it gives you.

Ron Maydon driving the LEC CRP1. From what I learned this weekend Ron is the driving force behind the Maters series.
LEC was a UK motor racing team and Formula One constructor based at Bognor Regis, West Sussex. They participated in ten Grands Prix using a March in 1973 and their own car, the LEC CRP1, in 1977.
LEC racing returned to Formula One in 1977 with their own LEC chassis designed by Mike Pilbeam[2] and run by Mike Earle. It was this car in which Purley suffered serious injuries in an accident during pre-qualifying for that year's British Grand Prix. He survived an estimated 179.8 g when he decelerated from 173 km/h (108 mph) to 0 in a distance of 66 cm (26 inches) after his throttle got stuck wide open and he hit a wall.[3] For many years, this was thought to be the highest g-force ever survived by a human being.[3] He suffered multiple fractures to his legs, pelvis and ribs.
The second CRP1 has been restored and has competed in historic Formula One racing alongside a modern replica built by WKD Motorsport.
Saint Barbara is recognisable by the tower where her father had her locked away after she converted to Christianity. Barbara wears colourful clothing embellished with gold embroidery and magnificent jewels. In her hand she holds an ostrich feather given to her by the Christ Child in a vision.
This painting belongs with the panel of Saint Catherine hanging to the left. Together they formed the side panels of an altarpiece that is now in Liverpool. The painter is an anonymous Antwerp artist known rather misleadingly as the Master of Frankfurt.

Conheci uma revista sobre PhotoShop chamada "PhotoShop Creative" na capa mostrava uma imagem parecida com essa minha, comprei a revista e traduzi para o PHOTOFILTRE STUDIO e é claro retirei algumas coisas que só recursos do PS poderiam fazer na imagem, ficou um tanto simples mas eu gostei bastante, espero que gostem também!
