Convict-Built Wall Henderson Street
The wall which would have run continuously (except for entrance openings) from Holdsworth Street to South Terrace would have enclosed – from north to south – the barracks of the rank-and-file Sappers and Miners, three rows of 'disciplinary' warders cottages (all extant), and, on the South Terrace corner, two houses for 'instructing' warders (sapper-miner officers). The sappers barracks were replaced in 1899 by the fourth courthouse (now called the 'old' courthouse) which is now a pub. The two instructing warders houses were replaced by the Markets in 1898.
