INTRODUCTION
This report details the results of archaeological work undertaken in the Fremantle Prison
Stables building in November 2009. Eureka Archaeological Research and Consulting UWA(Eureka) was engaged by Philip Griffiths Architects (PGA), on behalf of Building Management
and Works (BMW), to undertake archaeological assessment of the Fremantle Prison Stablesbuilding prior to the commencement of maintenance and restoration works. In particular,archaeological assessment was undertaken to investigate two areas: one adjacent to thebuilding’s southern exterior wall, and another at the stable’s existing western doorway.

BACKGROUND
Fremantle Prison is located in the city of Fremantle, Western Australia. The prison operated
as a jail from 1859 to 1991, but is now managed by the Department of Building Management
and Works (BMW) as a heritage centre and multi-purpose venue. The prison grounds now
house offices, museum collections, function venues, a visitors centre and café. The Prison islisted on local, state and federal heritage registers and is part of a consortium of convict-era
heritage sites forming a national bid for World Heritage listing. Previous archaeological work
undertaken by Eureka at Fremantle Prison includes watching briefs and assessments offeatures exposed during other development work (Fleming and Burke 2009), andarchaeological assessment of the Prison parade ground and visitor centre’s café in thecontext of proposed re-developments (Burke et al. 2009; Fleming et al. 2009). A detailed
historical background to the Fremantle Prison complex is provided in Burke et al. 2009.
Fremantle Prison Stables building (Plate 1) is located to the south of No.18 The Terrace,
adjacent to the Parry Street car park (Figure 1). Research undertaken by Palassis Architects(1999) indicates that the Stables, in its present location, was given approval for constructionth

on 10 November 1874, at the request of the then Surgeon G.C. Attfield. The next record of
the Stables is a photograph taken in 1878, showing the building in its current location andindicating that it was constructed between 1874 and 1877.

Various additions to the east, west and south sides of the Stables are noted on the 1897
sewerage plan. In relation to the archaeological assessments carried out by Eureka, the mostsignificant of these is the addition to the eastern side of the building. This eastern addition
included a copper boiler and drainage, together with a small woodshed for storing fuel for thecopper. The structures were probably constructed of jarrah timber framing and weatherboard.
In 1966 work was undertaken to turn the southern portion of The Terrace into car parking
space. Later, when parking requirements further increased, a ramp up to the yard behind theStables was created. The area at the rear of the Stables was probably developed sometimein the late 1960’s or early 1970’s.

PROJECT AIMS
Southern Exterior Wall of the Stables
In 2009 mitigation work was undertaken by BMW to conserve the Fremantle Prison Stablesbuilding. Deposit had been heaped against the southern wall to a height of approximately 2mduring levelling for the car park. Moisture seepage from this deposit was degrading thelimestone wall. A trench was dug along the southern exterior wall of the Stables to remove
the deposit and allow inspection of surviving timber joists. Eureka was requested toinvestigate the archaeological potential of this area following the recovery of historic artefacts
during the initial phase of digging the trench (Plate 2). The artefacts uncovered by BMW
workmen carrying out the work include a number of old bottles (pre 1920) and a hollow, castiron ball initially thought to be a ball from a convict era ball and chain (Plate 3).
The principal aims of the archaeological investigation were:•to investigate the nature of the deposit along the Stable’s southern exterior wall andto ascertain why a deposit that was apparently laid down in the second half of the20th century should contain 19th century artefacts;•

to attempt to recover further 19th century artefacts relating to the earliest phases of
the Fremantle Prison; and•to determine the function of the timber joists attached to the Stable’s southern exteriorwall and visible protruding from the ground.

The location of Trench 1 is marked on Figure 2 on Page 8.

Stables Doorway
At the request of Philip Griffiths Architects a small investigative trench (Trench 2) was also
excavated across the threshold of the existing doorway at the west end of the Stablesbuilding. The principal aims of this archaeological investigation were:•

to determine whether the doorway isis an original feature of the building, or a later
addition cutt through an earlier wall; and•to characterise any structural features relating to the doorway.

EXCAVATION TEAMth

The excavation and recording of Trench 1 (southern exterior wall) was undertaken on the 17th

and 20 November 2009. Excavation and recording of Trench 2 (western doorway) wasthundertaken on the 30 November 2009.
The excavations were carried out by the following Eureka staff:

EXCAVATION METHODSSouthern Exterior Wall of the Stables
A single trench (Trench 1), measuring 1 m wide (N-S) by 3 m long (E-W), was excavatedalong the southern exterior wall of the Stables building (Figure 2). The excavation was
conducted by hand using trowel and hand shovel. Trench 1 was excavated into a slope thatdescended from a height of approximately 2 m at the west end of the trench, to just 50 cm
above ground level at the east end of the trench. The west end of Trench 1 was excavated toa depth of approximately 60 cm. Further excavation at the west end of the trench would haverequired additional time and safety precautions beyond the scope of this work. The east endof the trench was excavated to the existing floor level of the Stables. A series of steps wereexcavated within the trench to maintain a relative level of approximately 60 cm below groundsurface level. While this meant that the base of the southern Stables wall was only reachedat the east end of Trench 1, it was considered appropriate to meet the aims of the excavation(Plate 4).
Standard excavation recording forms were used to record and describe stratigraphic units
within the deposit. A photographic record of the excavation was also maintained.
Trench 1 contained an incredibly rich deposit of cultural material. In light of this, theexcavated deposit was sampled by sieving every fourth bucket through a 5 mm screen. All
artefacts recovered were placed in sample bags and labelled according to their excavation
context and unit number. Artefacts were then taken to the University of Western Australia
Archaeology Laboratory for analysis.

Stables Doorway
Trench 2, a shallow trench measuring approximately 70 cm (E-W) x 30 cm (N-S) was opened
across the threshold of the Stables doorway (Figure 2). The trench was positioned centrally,equidistant from the two door jambs (Plate 5). The excavation was conducted by hand using
trowel and hand shovel.
Standard excavation recording forms were used to record and describe stratigraphic units
within the deposit. A photographic record of the excavation was also maintained.

RESULTSSOUTHERN EXTERIOR WALL
WA OF THE STABLES
The aim of this investigation was to determine the nature of the deposit adjacent to thesouthern exterior wall of the Stables.

Stratigraphy
Nine stratigraphic units were identified during the excavation of Trench 1. These included
four deposits,
posits, four structural elements and one organic feature. In brief, the stratigraphic units
are:Unit (001)– Loose grey sand; topsoil

Unit (002)– Yellow builder’s sandUnit [003]– Degraded timber joist, structural element

Unit [004]– Timber structure, probably a trellis

Unit (005 / 007) – Mixed artefact-richartefact
deposit
Unit [006]– Brick pedestal for post

Unit [008]– Grapevine, organic feature

Unit (009)– Limestone levelling layer

Unit (010)– Degraded post associated with [006]

The Harris Matrix in Figure 3 demonstrates how the various units relate to each otherstratigraphically:

eureka archaeological research and consulting

Unit (001) is a modern topsoil layer that has built up since the deposit was laid down forlevelling the car park, probably in the 1970s. It contains artefacts dating to the past 20 years
and overlies Units (002) and (005 / 007), which relate to surface levelling for the car park.
Unit (002) comprises modern yellow builder’s sand and appears to have been tipped in over
Unit (005 / 007) to level out the east end of the fill adjacent to the southern side of theStables. Unit (002) was probably deposited in the late 1970s to early 1980s as it contains two
Emu Export beer cans that date to between 1977 and 1985.
Unit (005 / 007) is an artefact rich mixed deposit that was probably laid down in the 1950s(though potentially as late as the 1970s). This is indicated by the artefacts in the deposit. Unit
(005 / 007) was initially thought to be a number of different units but it is most likely to be amixed deposit brought in from various sources and deposited at the same time. All of theartefacts in this unit, which date from the 1830s to the 1950s, are in secondary deposition andout of their original context. It is from this unit that the workmen initially digging the trenchfound artefacts.
The redeposited Units (005 / 007) and (002) overlie and have been dumped over a number ofstructural features that all appear to have been part of a trellis or similarly designed support
for grape vines. Unit [008] is a substantial grapevine, with a trunk 60mm thick, that has
survived burial by redeposited materials. Units [003] and [004] are surviving timber elementsof the trellis structure which are attached to the timbers at the southern wall of the Stables.
Unit (010) is a degraded timber deposit that was very likely also a part of this trellis.
Unit [006] is a brick feature found towards the base of the excavation. It has a rectangularvertical opening and was initially thought to be a drain. The Unit (010) timber deposit entirely
fills this vertical opening. When fully excavated it became clear that the opening was fully
contained within the structure and had no outlet, and is therefore unlikely to have served as adrain. It appears to have held an upright post. The brick feature [006] continues into thesouth wall of the trench, so it was most likely a low brick wall designed to hold a number ofvertical wooden posts as part of the trellis construction.
Brick feature [006] sits directly on top of Unit (009), a crushed limestone deposit. This unit isprobably the same as Unit (102) from Trench 2 inside the Stables, and is interpreted as alevelling layer for the original construction of the Stables. Therefore, this deposit likely dates
to the construction of the Stables in the 1870s and probably comprises the only convict era
deposit located during this excavation.

The Deposit
Unit (005 / 007) is the deposit from which the artefacts derived and comprises approximately
95% of all sediment excavated from the trench. As previously discussed this unit has beenbrought in from elsewhere and redeposited in this location. The soil is extremely mixed and ismade up of numerous layers of slightly different sediments. Generally grey in colour, thedeposit is alkaline, and there is excellent organic preservation with timber and particularlybone, surviving well within the deposit. It is clear from the cultural material in the deposit that
this sediment has been introduced to the site from more than one location. It was deposited
as a single episode, most likely as part of levelling undertaken prior to construction of theupper car park.
The origin or origins of this levelling deposit at the back of the Stables is unclear. Some of it
may originate from within the prison complex, however it is likely, on the basis ofarchaeological material recovered from the fill, that most of it was introduced from outside.
Bavin (1993) conducted archaeological excavations within the walls of Fremantle Prison
shortly after its closure and concluded that there had been extensive mixing and redepositingof sediments throughout the prison complex. The artefact assemblage excavated by Bavinwas dominated by construction materials but included numerous items that were
manufactured within the prison, such as boot heels (Bavin 1993:429-431). Recent
excavations undertaken by Eureka in the Fremantle Prison Parade Ground and nearby
No.14, The Terrace, recovered similar assemblages of archaeological material (Burke et al.
2009:38, Sparkes-Santos and Stedman 2010 in prep.).

Structural Remains
Structural timber [003] / [004] at the southern exterior wall of the Stables may be the remainsof a trellis or similar structure designed to support grape vines. The structure appears to havebeen supported by the extant upright timber joists that are set against the southern exteriorwall. Excavation revealed a number of other timber joists and planks that run horizontal tothese uprights, both along the wall and at right angles away from the wall. These timbers
were variably preserved; some were in very good condition, while others were in a poor stateof preservation. It was not possible to determine the exact form of the structure, however thetimbers had been nailed and there was no evidence of carpentry joints. The various joists are
not uniform and it appears that pieces of miscellaneous timber were utilised in theconstruction of this structure.

eureka archaeological research and consulting

A large grapevine [008] was also unearthed during excavation. This consisted of a main vine
stem, measuring 60mm in diameter, with numerous subsidiary smaller stems running from it.
There was a clear stratigraphic link between the smaller stems and the structural timber
remains and the interpretation is that the timber structure was designed to support this vine.
As noted above, the brick structure [006] seems designed to support an upright timber post(101). The existing post is much larger however, and in a poorer state of preservation than
the trellis timbers. This suggests that it is older than the other trellis timbers and may relate toan earlier structure along the southern exterior wall of the Stables. The brick structure
continues into the south section of Trench 1 and its full extent was not uncovered. It seems
likely that this structure was intended as more than a support for a single timber and further
excavation to expose its full extent would be required to determine its function.
Unit (005 / 007) was deposited over and around these various structural features, andtherefore predates the deposition of sediment in this location. The structure consequently
pre-dates 1950, but may be considerably older as the size of the grape vine would indicate it
had been growing for some time. A number of intact nails embedded within individual timbers
from the trellis [003] / [004] were recovered. Removal and dating of these nails may provide adate for this structure. It may also be possible to determine an age for the bricks used in the
brick structure [006].

Artefacts
A large artefact assemblage was recovered from the deposit at the external southern wall of
the Stables (Plate 6, Plate 7 &Plate 8). All artefacts have been cleaned and a preliminary
analysis conducted. Artefacts were identified and categorised by form and function and,
where diagnostic features were preserved, for probable date of manufacture. A catalogue ofartefacts is provided in Appendix 1. No additional analysis of artefacts has been undertaken
although there is clearly potential to work further on this collection of archaeological material.

The majority of excavated artefactual material is made of glass, ceramic, bone or metal.
More than half the assemblage relates to food or beverage consumption. Hardware andstructural material makes up about twenty five percent of the assemblage. No artefacts suchas boot heels, known to have been manufactured within the prison, were recovered from thedeposit. A summary of the artefact assemblage recovered from Trench 1 is provided in Table

Dating of Excavated Artefacts
Only 46 artefacts contained datable diagnostic information. These include bottle and window
glass, metal cans and nails. With additional time and research a number of ceramic artefacts
within the assemblage may also be dated. In most cases an estimated age range forartefacts was determined. The earliest possible date for any artefact within the assemblage is1830 which comes from the four hollow, cast iron balls subsequently identified as shrapnel
shot (see below for discussion). There are several artefacts within the assemblage that canconfidently be dated to pre 1900, including a clay tobacco pipe fragment and a pair of ironnails. Although a number of items such as the beer cans are much more recent, dating within
the last 20 years, only a small number of artefacts are likely to post-date 1940.

Cannonballs
Eureka has been asked to report on four hollow, cast iron balls recovered from Trench 1. The
first of these, found by workmen in the deposit at the south of the Stables, was originally
thought to be from a convict era ball and chain. All four of the balls have diameters of 110
mm, weigh 3.3 kg and have a 17mm diameter circular hole and a 25 mm circular mark (Plate
9). Analysis indicates that they are in fact “spherical case shot” or “shrapnel shot”, invented in
1748 by Lt. Henry Shrapnel of the British Royal Artillery (Dupuy 1990:219). The hollow ball
was filled with lead shot, an explosive charge and then filled with sulphur that hardened tohold the shot in place. The hole would have accommodated a fuse (Lissak 1915:439).
thDuring the second half of the 19 century the Prison kept a six pounder gun at the front gatesto alert the town of Fremantle to escapees; however a gun of this size would have been too
small to fire these balls (Plate 10). Judging by their diameter, the balls recovered from Trench
1 were intended for use in a gun or mortar with a calibre larger than the six pounder, but
smaller than an eighteen pounder carronade (Stanbury, pers comm.). The most probableartillery piece would therefore have been either a twelve or fourteen pounder. It is unlikelythat these shells derive from the prison itself. Further research into the use of case shot by
the British Navy in Western Australia may determine a location where shells were discarded
when they became obsolete. This could potentially help to determine where the (005 / 007)
deposit originated.

STABLE DOORWAY
Stratigraphy
The excavation of Trench 2 at the Stable doorway identified nine stratigraphic units:
Unit (100) - Modern concrete / bitumen at surface level
Unit (101) - Modern levelling gravel
Unit (102) - Crushed limestone levelling layer
Unit [103] - Timber post
Unit [104] - Metal cylinders
Unit (105) - Sandy grey deposit (possibly degraded cement)
Unit [106] - Posthole for unit [103] and (108)
Unit [107] - Degraded timber joist
Unit (108) - Fill of posthole [106]The Harris matrix in Figure 4 demonstrates how the nine units relate to each otherstratigraphically.
Figure 4: Harris Matrix, Trench
ench 2 Fremantle Stables

The bitumen / concrete (100) and gravel (101) are modern units which overlie original
features. Directly beneath these are a grey sandy layer (105), external to the door threshold,thresholdand a crushed limestone layer (102) inside the threshold. Unit (105), a grey
grey sandy deposit,
overlies
lies the structural features which all cut into Unit (102). Unit (105), once removed, wasshown to overlie Unit (102). Unit (102) is similar to the crushed limestone used throughout
the prison as a levelling layer and is interpretedinterpreted as being the original floor surface of theStables.

21
Eureka June 2010 Fremantle Prison Western Australia: Archaeological Test Excavation of the Stables Building.

eureka archaeological research and consulting

The structural elements of Trench 2 consist of a posthole [106] filled with deposit (108) andthe remains of a post [103], two identical small metal cylinders [104] which are inserted into
Unit (102), and a degraded piece of timber [107] which runs horizontally along the line of thedoor threshold (externally) and is set into Unit (102). This timber is very degraded and set
into the limestone levelling layer (102). The posthole is also cut into this unit.
The posthole is interpreted here as being dug to support an upright post upon which double
doors could close. The two metal cylinders are interpreted as being locking mechanisms into
which vertical bolts would be shot to lock the doors. The horizontal timber runs along thedoor threshold and provides a floor level demarcation point between the interior and exteriorof the Stables. There is no clear stratigraphic relationship between the posthole, the metal
cylinders and the horizontal timber. However it is unlikely that two locking bolts would be
used on one side of an upright timber joist. Thus in this case, the metal cylinders areinterpreted as being a later intrusion, introduced after the digging of the posthole.
The results of this excavation would suggest that the doorway is an original feature of theStables. No evidence of wall foundations was recovered and instead the crushed limestonelayer found throughout the prison for levelling and as a floor was located. Evidence would
suggest that the doorway originally had two doors which swung outwards on hinges closing
on a central timber pillar. This pillar appears to have been replaced later and the doors
locked at ground level with vertical bolts. These double doors were probably replaced before
the current bitumen / concrete floor was laid down and the subsequent installation of thevertical roller door. The grey sandy layer clearly postdates the installation of the metal locking
bolts, but probably predates the change to a vertical roller door. As such it is interpreted as apossible levelling layer of floor surface external to the Stables, prior to the laying down on thebitumen.

CONCLUSIONS AND INTERPRETATION
An archaeological investigation of the Stables building at Fremantle Prison has establishedthat a levelling deposit to the south of the building was brought in from somewhere outside
the prison and probably deposited sometime between the 1950s and 1970s. Prior to thelevelling of this area for a car park, a trellis or similar structure designed to support agrapevine existed along the southern external wall of the Stables. The remains of a brickstructure of as yet unknown function are also located in this area. Archaeological material
excavated from this area dates from between 1880 and 1940. It includes a variety ofdomestic items used predominantly in food preparation and consumption. The origin of thismaterial is as yet unknown. It does not appear to be the result of prison activities and haspresumably been brought into the Prison from another location. While some construction
materials were recovered, these only comprised approximately 25% of the entire assemblage.
In particular there are no artefacts such as boot heels, which were manufactured within theprison. This deposit is therefore similar to that excavated by Bavin (1993) from the Fremantle
Roundhouse well.
Bavin (1993) concluded that a large percentage of the Roundhouse Well artefact assemblage
was redeposited, originating from outside the Roundhouse. She suggested that the fill of thewell had been brought in from the sand dunes surrounding Fremantle, where the local
population had been discarding their rubbish “…from the second quarter of the nineteenth
century up until the mid twentieth century” (Bavin 1993: 331). While the Roundhouse wellassemblage also contained a large amount of construction debris, Bavin concluded that muchof it was the result of specific periods of renovation within the Roundhouse. As a result,construction debris may have been over represented in the artefact assemblage (Bavin 1993:
330).
With this in mind, is it difficult to draw a definitive link between artefacts from the Stables
excavation and use of Fremantle Prison. Further research into the development of the carpark south of the Stables may shed further light on the origin of the deposit. The dominanceof food storage and preparation items, as well as other domestic material, clearly indicatesthat these artefacts originated from an area of domestic refuse disposal. The large quantity ofanimal bone, much of which shows evidence of butchering, supports this. Further analysis ofbone material to determine the numbers and species of animals represented in the deposit
may provide additional clues to the original source of this material. Additional investigation of
specific artefact classes within the assemblage could provide additional and potentially more
specific information about the people to whom they belonged. Further excavation adjacent tothe southern exterior wall of the Stables is likely to yield more archaeological material.

Despite being in secondary deposition, the artefact rich nature of this deposit and the goodorganic preservation within it means it has great potential to yield significant information about
early settlement in Fremantle.
Hollow, cast iron balls recovered from this deposit are spherical case shot, a type of shrapnel
bomb.
Archaeological excavation has proved that the west doorway of the Stables is an original
feature of the building dating back to its 1850s construction. Initially, it was probably secured
by double doors with a central wooden pillar. This pillar was removed at sometime in the pastand replaced with new doors that bolted at floor level into a base plate. The original double
doors are now replaced by a metal roller door.

RECOMMENDATIONS
An archaeological investigation of nominated areas within the Fremantle Prison Stables has
been undertaken. It is recommended that:•

The deposit adjacent to the southern exterior wall of the Stables, despite being insecondary deposition, is potentially significant. The artefact rich nature of this deposit
and the good organic preservation within it means it has great potential to yield
information about early settlement in Fremantle.

•

The brick structure at the rear of the Stables could be further investigated todetermine its function and date of construction.

•

Any future ground disturbance undertaken around the Stables building should be
conducted with an archaeologist in attendance as part of an archaeological watchingbrief.
