maylands - derelict meadow
opposite the coles and beside the KFC is a vast wasteland that has been barren for 20 years.
according to a sign on the footpath, it was once a bar called the hemisphere, but no photographs of this exists.
and before or after this, it was the site of The Cascades Tavern:

the tavern burnt down in the 1990s and stood derelict for a bunch of years.
and even before this, it may have been the site of a drive-in cinema.
i wish i could get past the fence just to walk around, but the meadow is heavily surveiled and there is apparently horrible dogs.
