The area of Newcastle was first explored by European
settlers in 1797 when Lieutenant Josh Shortland was searching the area of
Newcastle for a number of convicts who had seized a vessel. By the beginning of
the 19th century, the area was home to a diverse range of people and
industries including coal miners, timber production, and escaped convicts. In
the 1820s the settlement of Newcastle opened up to farming in the area, and
after the removal of the last convicts in 1923 the town began to prosper from
the rise in settlers to the area. Newcastle port has always been a significant
economic driving force for the city, with shipbuilding and trade taking place.
The city is also benefitting from a renewal and
rejuvenation project which is planning to help commercial businesses in the
city. Serviced apartments in Newcastle are situated within close proximity to
numerous industries that make up the city including the port which still drives
