Touring Tassie with photographer Frank Bolt This week we have left one island for another. This is Miller’s Cottage on Maria Island. Frank’s notes state that he took this photograph in 1984 from the top of a Land Rover in a howling gale. A windmill once stood in the centre of this circle. The tailpole section of the mill ended with a wheel running along the stone surface of this circle. It was the miller’s job to get the mill working immediately whenever there was wind. #QVMAG #touringtassie #frankbolt

Touring Tassie with photographer Frank Bolt Dulverton, northeast of Railton, was the home of brick manufacturers Zolati & Sons Pty Ltd. Up to 5 million bricks a year were produced in their wood-fired kiln. Frank photographed the kiln in action in 1989 before it was eventually demolished. #QVMAG #touringtassie #frankbolt

Touring Tassie with photographer Frank Bolt Blue singlets, lanolin and sore backs. Yep! You guessed it; Frank found his way to a shearing shed. In 1987, Frank travelled to Woolnorth at the tip of Tassie’s north-west coast. #QVMAG #touringtassie #frankbolt
