  1. Hi Tyson Cottrill,
    Following up after your story about the woman chaining herself to stop a building from being removed from Singleton School; have a look at Rutherford behind Ray’s Outdoor & the Caltex servo, there is a block of land with de mountable buildings stacked up just left there going to ruin. They look like old class rooms & school buildings that have been abandoned or forgotten about. I’m not sure who owns them but there might be another story in it for you.
    Hope this info is good for you.
