I've been here during my Australasia visit in 2014/2015, i recently discovered this website so i'm currently uploading some of my old visits.
During our Roadtrip on the Australian westcoast we ran into this abandoned building.
It appeared to be the abandoned old Lynton Convict depot.
Built as the first convict depot in western Australia in 1853 and pretty quickly closed in 1857 due to the high costs of maintenance.
One building still stand to this day (might have been renovated a bit), but most of the buildings are in ruins.
