This isthmus is the reason Port Arthur was chosen as the site for a prison. The tiny strip of land was easily patrolled, few were able to swim and a line of dogs, tethered at short intervals, roused the soldiers if anyone tried to get by. The Officers Quarters has been restored as a museum interpreting the history and life at Eaglehawk Neck. The 1832 quarters is reputed to be the oldest wooden military building remaining in Australia.
