Rammed earth has been used in many public arenas. This Church at Margaret River was one of the first and created a public awareness of rammed earth which has seen the Margaret River area become home to the highest percentage of new rammed earth constructions in Australia. Twenty per cent of all new homes are built using rammed earth. In addition, many of the local wineries and tourist resorts have been constructed out of rammed earth.
