These pictures give an idea of the jumble of ‘stuff’ that were in the sheds when Sid Damms departed from the Lock House. There was much more, but it was difficult to work your way around the crowded interiors, and not the time to visit all the sheds. A lot of the contents were planks and other miscellaneous bits of wood, useful for making repairs and, presumably, for making more sheds. There were pieces of farm machinery, complimenting the larger items left outside. There was a stack of wooden military ammunition boxes, presumably empty and kept for the timber rather than anything else.
