Westbury Probation Station Chapel

Westbury was home to a Road Station and Hiring Depot, serving as a vital centre for convict labour and recruitment in the region.

This station, situated approximately 20 kilometers southwest of Launceston, was partially established by settlers with the primary purpose of accommodating the road party. It possessed the capacity to house around 400 convicts.

Constructed primarily of wood, the cells were enclosed by a tall paling fence, ensuring security and seclusion. The mess room, in addition to serving its primary function, was also utilized as a chapel.
