ALMA Cycle 0 observations identified one of the most massive star-forming cores observed in the Milky Way. Situated within the IRDC SDC335.579-0.292 this core, along with an accompanying lower mass core, appear to be in the early stages of forming massive (M _* > 8 M _solar ) stars.

In this talk the results of ATCA follow up continuum observations (6, 8, 23, 25 GHz) will be presented. The results of which have allowed us to identify 3 hyper compact HII regions within SDC335 and characterise the protostars creating them. From these results we are able to put constraints on the future stellar population in SDC335.
