Dorothea Mackellar Silo Art

Landmarks and Buildings

A portrait of well-known Australian poet Dorothea Mackellar and the second verse of her iconic poem “My Country” in her own handwriting is immortalized on this 29-meter-high, privately owned maize mill.

The stunning giant art created by established silo artist Heesco can be admired on Barber Street.

There is a viewing platform with an information board on the walkway on Gunnedah’s new bridge that links the Oxley Highway and Warrumbungle Street, as well as at the entry to the Maize Mill.

Be aware that it is a working Maize Mill and there will be trucks coming in and out. Please take notice of signage and don’t go through the gate when open.
