Heavitree Gap Police Station

It is located on the southwestern side of Heavitree Gap in Alice Springs in the Northern Territory of Australia.

The area was declared as a conservation reserve under Section 12 of the Territory Parks and Wildlife Commission Act of 30 June 1978 based on its historic values.

The reserve is significant because of its connection to early policing in Central Australia, European settlement and early frontier contact between Aboriginal and European people.

In 1879, Mounted Constable William Wilshire moved the camp via wagon to Heavitree Gap.

[1] The condition of the site had deteriorated by the early 1960s and in 1967 work was undertaken to reconstruct it.
