The village of Bungendore is a 15 minute drive away from the nearest regional centre where there are three major supermarkets. Drive a little further (30 minutes in total) and you will find yourself in the Australian Capital, Canberra.
The local community have started a petition to try and save our heritage buildings:

Hi Tam,what a senseless act it'd be to tear that lovely old house down, and good on YOU for bringing it to peoples' attention, lets hope common sense prevails. Hope it's not too cold there... Tam enjoy your weekend.
Just signed the petition. Hope the town can turn around the decision. We are currently facing the Qld State Govt closing and selling off both my old High School, and my Husband's old Primary School, for the land! 2 of the 8 schools up for closure are ours :-( so I wish you luck in saving yours xx.
