The area of Newcastle was first explored by European settlers in 1797 when Lieutenant Josh Shortland was searching the area of Newcastle for a number of convicts who had seized a vessel. By the beginning of the 19th century, the area was home to a diverse range of people and industries including coal miners, timber production, and escaped convicts. In the 1820s the settlement of Newcastle opened up to farming in the area, and after the removal of the last convicts in 1923 the town began to prosper from the rise in settlers to the area. Newcastle port has always been a significant economic driving force for the city, with shipbuilding and trade taking place.
The city is also benefitting from a renewal and rejuvenation project which is planning to help commercial businesses in the city.
