Project update from Yarraman Park

May 12, 2026

The Finchetts team has been out at Yarraman Park, just outside of Portland, working on the new equine shed project for Glenelg Shire.

This stage has been all about the roof and purlins. And if you’re wondering what a purlin is, you’re not alone! They’re the horizontal beams that help support the roof sheets, so while they might not be the flashiest part of a build, they’re doing a very important job behind the scenes.

It’s great to see this one starting to take shape, and projects like this are a good reminder of the variety of work our team gets to be part of across the region.

From homes and businesses to local facilities like this, the crew is always working on something a little different.

More updates to come as the build progresses.
