A historic gaol with 60 cells and a watchtower has come up for sale after being decommissioned for use last year.

The former Berrima Correctional Centre in the Southern Highlands, built mostly by convicts in irons, was used as a prison for close to 200 years and is being sold off by the NSW government.

No price has been released and industry sources estimated the value of the site could range from a few million to well over $20 million.

The original sandstone buildings were constructed for £5400 between 1835 and 1839 and were designed by a convicted carpenter from London, who later gained a conditional pardon.
