Diversifying the early history of the prefabricated colonial house in Moreton Bay

The history of prefabrication in settler Australia is incomplete. The use of prefabricated and transportable buildings in existing Australian architectural histories focuses on colonial importation from Britain, Asia, America and New Zealand. This article, however, argues for a more diverse and local history of prefabrication — one that considers Indigenous people’s use of prefabrication and draws on archaeological research of abandoned military ventures, revealing an Australian-made, colonial prefabricated building industry that existed for over 40 years, from the 1800s to the 1840s. A more inclusive architectural history of prefabrication is considered in relation to a case study of the first European house erected in Moreton Bay at the British penal outpost of Red Cliffe Point (1824–25), a settlement established partly to contribute to British territory-marking on Australia’s distant coastlines. While existing histories prioritise transportability and ease of assembly as features of prefabricated buildings, this research has found that ease of disassembly, relocation and recycling of building components is a key feature of prefabrication in early abandoned British military garrisons.

使摩顿湾预制殖民房屋的早期历史多样化

澳大利亚定居者的预制历史是不完整的。在现有的澳大利亚建筑历史中,预制和可移动建筑的使用侧重于从英国、亚洲、美国和新西兰的殖民输入。然而,这篇文章主张一种更加多样化和本地化的预制历史——考虑到土著人民对预制的使用,并借鉴了对废弃军事企业的考古研究,揭示了澳大利亚制造的殖民预制建筑业已经存在了 40 多年,从 1800 年代到 1840 年代。一个更具包容性的预制建筑历史被认为与在英国红崖角(1824-25)刑事前哨的摩顿湾建造的第一座欧洲房屋的案例研究有关,建立定居点的部分原因是为了在澳大利亚遥远的海岸线上划定英国领土。虽然现有历史将可运输性和易于组装作为预制建筑的特征优先考虑,但这项研究发现,建筑构件的拆卸、搬迁和回收的便利性是早期废弃的英国军事驻军中预制的一个关键特征。
