The Bradmill factory is an important part of Australia’s industrial heritage. Established in 1938, the factory was the country’s first and only manufacturer of denim, and also supplied cotton workwear including the iconic King Gee brand. At its peak, the factory employed over 2000 people and was an essential part of the Australian textile industry. The factory’s closure in 2005 marked the end of an era for the local community. For generations, families had worked at the site, making it a significant part of their history.

Over the years, the abandoned factory buildings have become a canvas for graffiti artists, adding an unexpected layer of beauty to the otherwise derelict and abandoned site.
