Geelong Gaol. Crime, Shelter, Convalescence ...

Geelong Gaol sits prominently on Myers St, a daily reminder of the stark reality of what it once was and of a time when life was a daily struggle for many. Opening in April 1853, it was purpose built for prisoners who were being housed locally in small forced labor huts and in the extreme conditions of hulks that sat in Corio Bay.
