Located in Ross, Tasmania, the Ross Female Factory Historic Site was operational from 1848 to 1854, serving as a probation station for female convicts and their children. The site was adapted from a male convict station and expanded to include a chapel, dining rooms, hospital, nursery, solitary cells, dormitories, and an outer courtyard. Today, the Overseer's Cottage houses a museum with displays, including a model of the Female Factory as it appeared in 1851. The site is managed by the Parks and Wildlife Service and the Tasmanian Wool Centre of Ross.
