Looks like my parents' old chook house. :)

Lol.
No, a bit more significant than that, Jim.
It's at a place that has modern historic significance.

Maybe a meat hanging house on a
farm / station somewhere in Aust.

No Reggy, sorry. Here's an associated building nearby.

The associated building looks like the Telegraph Station at
Alice Springs.

You're in the right region, Macca.
The associated building is not part of a telegraph station, it is nurses' quarters.
Here's another building on the same site that will probably give away the location:
Associated building 2

A cigarillo for you, Stephen, well done.
To get the cigar, what is the small shed erroneously, but perhaps aptly, described as an old chook-house? It's in the same complex.

Sorry, Pinko, missed you there. No, not
Millstream.
Stephen has got the location right -
Hermannsburg. The building is a bit tricky but another clue - it has a medical use.

No, Stephen, not a morgue. But used in serious medical circumstances.

That's it, Jim. Well done. It's the isolation "ward" at the
Hermannsburg mission. There is at least one other similar building used for a different purpose but I don't recall the details, just remember it was there.
Wouldn't want to be stuck in there for a Covid lockdown, eh? They did it tough in those days.
Hermannsburg Mission is well worth the visit if you've never been there.

Looking at the two open windows maybe a power generator shed with the pipe for power to be exported.
