Fluidr / Dead but Filled with Life: Channel Island, Darwin NT by ABOUT North

Channel Island near Darwin housed leprosy sufferers between 1931 and 1955.

Channel Island was the site of the first quarantine facility in the Northern Territory, with construction of the hospital and facilities completed in 1914.

In 1931, it was converted to a leprosarium. The settlement was finally abandoned in 1955. Although many buildings were dismantled and removed following the closure, many historical artefacts remain on the island. The jetty, foundations of the original quarantine hospital, burial sites and associated artifacts provide evidence of a unique period in Australia’s history.
