EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the lock-up at Hannan Gold Field in Western Australia, a temporary measure for detaining criminals during the gold rush era of the late 19th century. The gold field, located in the remote region of Western Australia, was a bustling community of miners and prospectors seeking their fortune. The nearest prison, however, was located far away in Fremantle on the coast of Perth, making the use of a lock-up a necessary measure for maintaining law and order. The date on this image is 1895, a time when the gold rush was in full swing, and the population of the gold field was at its peak. The lock-up, a simple wooden structure, served as a holding cell for those awaiting trial. The harsh conditions and long journey to Fremantle made it essential that a temporary solution was in place to house those who had been apprehended. The historical significance of this image lies in its depiction of life during the gold rush era in Western Australia. It provides a glimpse into the challenges faced by those living and working in the gold fields, and the importance of community and law and order in maintaining a semblance of civilization in such a remote and isolated location. The image is a reminder of the rich history of Western Australia and the gold rush era, a period of great importance in the state's development. The lock-up at Hannan Gold Field stands as a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of those who lived and worked during this time, and the lengths they went to ensure that justice was served, even in the most challenging of circumstances.
