Description

Armidale Gaol opened in 1863 as a minor police gaol for receiving prisoners from the district sentenced to a term of 12 months imprisonment or less. Declining numbers of prisoners led to the gaol's closure in 1920. In 1927 the gaol was demolished and the Armidale Teachers' College was subsequently erected on the site.
