Barracks Arch
St. George's Terr. and Malcolm St., Perth, Western Australia, Australia Phone: Not AvailableAbout
The Barracks Arch is one of Perth's historic landmark buildings. The area around it was land marked for a freeway. Ok, so it might be missing 120 rooms, but this means it doesn't bite too heavily into your travel itinerary. The Barracks was built to house the Enrolled Pensioner Force (also known as 'Pensioner Guards'). The guards came to Australia on the convict ships that transported nearly 10,000 prisoners to Western Australia between 1850 - 1868.
