Perth Gaolとは 意味・読み方・使い方

The Perth Gaol (often referred to as the Old Perth Gaol) was a gaol (jail) built in Perth, Western Australia between 1854 and 1856 to house convicts and other prisoners. It operated until March 1888 when the last prisoner was transferred to Fremantle Prison. The main gaol building, minus the yards, stands today adjacent to the Western Australian Museum in Northbridge, a suburb of Perth. In addition to a number of displays of colonial and prison related artefacts, the building houses the museum's retail shop and coffee shop.
