There has also been a fair bit of work done on convict era prisons in
Australia including the following:

Bosworth, M., & Jean, Amanda 1999. Interpreting confinement in
north-western Australia. Historic Environment, 14: 25-32.

Casella, E. C. 2001c. To Watch or Restrain - Female Convict Prisons in
19th-Century Tasmania. International Journal of Historical Archaeology, 5:

History.

Winter, S. 2011. A Preliminary Report on Archaeological Investigations at
Two Western Australian Regional Convict Depots. Australian Archaeology, 73:

Additionally there has been a lot of consultancy and post-grad work done at
the two world heritage sites of Fremantle Prison and Port Arthur, but so
far most of it is unpublished.

Hope this helps
