To clarify further (or perhaps less?). I made the reference to Tallangatta, which GregR correctly identified, because there is a specific link between that town and the identity of the photograph's location.

GregR, it fits perfectly. I'm glad you got it, despite the fact that my clues might be bizarre.

No camping allowed. For a longtime no men allowed.

Btw: I meant Wobbly was exceptionally close not NNW.
Been a long night at the Taree evacuation centre waiting for roads to reopen. The fires around Port Macquarie yesterday we're very intense, looks like Armegeddon.
