The factory

Powder Room Window moss The Smith Street building servedFading light falls through a grimy window in the powder room of the former Peters Creameries Pty Ltd factory at Chatham, Taree. Peeling paint and cracked tiles mark the room's slow retreat. The factory opened in 1939 and ran as a steam driven dairy plant until the late 1990s, when corporate rationalisation shifted production elsewhere. Part of the Peters' Ice Cream Factory series.
