The Port Arthur historic site listed on the World Heritage List is Australia's best-preserved conviction site and one of the world is most important conviction sites. Port Arthur's criminal settlement began living as a small timber station in 1830 and quickly became more and more important in the colonies. The company introduced shipbuilding on a large scale to provide selected criminals with useful skills that they can take away with their release. The company began its European history in 1830 from a timber acquisition station. Further experiments were to establish Point Puer Boys' Prison, across the bay , the first separate boy's prison in the British Empire. As these men began to age and their health failed, the company began to see changes in the demographics of its prisoners. However, the 1850s and 1860s were outstanding events designed to make the station economically sustainable.
