The convicts of the First Fleet, which arrived in Australia in 1788, were initially confined to a small area around Sydney Cove. Their living quarters were cramped, often consisting of simple tents or rudimentary huts, limiting their movement. As they settled in, some were assigned to work in various locations, providing them with a bit more freedom, but overall, their mobility remained restricted by colonial regulations and the need for labor.
The convicts on the First Fleet did not have beds. They merely slept on hammocks, and had very little room to move.

This move was crucial for the sustainability of the colony.
