Queen’s Magazine (c.1839) designed for storage for 3,000 barrels of gunpowder. Built by convicts using sandstone quarried from the western side of the island. It was a requirement for merchant ships to unload their gunpowder at Goat Island while docked in Sydney Harbour, this was to ensure that there were no ships exploded in the harbour. It was in use until 1907, when the last explosives were removed.
