Stuart Town Gaol while under construction

Stuart Town Gaol in Alice Springs (formerly Stuart), Northern Territory, Australia, located on 9 Parson Street, was constructed in 1907,[1] when Alice Springs had a European population of approximately 30 people,[2] and held its first prisoner in 1909.[3] It is one of the earliest permanent buildings constructed in the town and the first government building.[1] The gaol follows a simple design and was built, using local materials, by stonemason Jack Williams.[3]
