Just looking at some pictures of the Atherton Tableland (via Mr Google) - what an absolutely stunning place!

Arent they cabins? Not caravans

Have to have another look

I was just thinking that when I looked at the enlarged picture - they look too squat somehow for caravans......and the doors look too tall.
Glad to see you thought so too David.

Has this been solved?  OH and I still expect that we will be in the area next weekend.

I'm staying here in the Atherton Tablelands for another couple of weeks and will ask some locals what they think.  If it's this area, those buildings on the left could be workers' accommodation in the old days of rainforest logging.

I've shown the picture to several people in two local towns, including visitor centre staff and a local historian.  None of them thought it was a Tablelands scene - one said the church was too grand for this area, but the small buildings might be part of a mining camp elsewhere in Australia.

Not sure whether this helps much :-\

JM, I believe Spidermonkey has had internet problems which would explain why she hasn't posted.  As you can see, I've drawn a blank here.

Thanks Carol,

We intend getting to Herberton and Ravenshoe this Sunday, so I will show around there too, just in case. 

I am sure Spidermonkey will be back once the internet realises how important it is that we can sort this out for her.   :)  :)

Huzzah!  I have found the portal that brings me back to the land of internet.  Not that I am blaming Windows 10 for everything, but updating certainly didn't help matters.........

No - this beauty still hasn't been found  :'( but thank you both for flashing the photo around the Atherton Tablelands  :-*
