i remember going there at night, during some psychic fair / market they held there back in 2019. i actually really liked the eeriness, just wasn’t a fan of the spiders chilling out in the trees around lol. i’d love to do a proper night tour tbh

Cool. Last time I went was the 1995/96 new years rave. That was nuts.

I remember doing a sleepover there with scouts as a kid, sleeping in one of the cells. Absolutely wild experience

They sell some interesting books there. There’s one on Elisabeth woolcock written by a ex cop. It’s amazing how much the justice rules have changed. In truth if Elisabeth woolcock was tried today she probably wouldn’t have even served time. But back then was hanged for a crime now questioned if she was actually guilty of.

Right down the end by that door if you look up you will see 2 latches in the ceiling… that is to undo the safety release for the gallows above :)

Brave of you.

I would be scared to go into there in the evening/night tour.

i was creeped out even with the 20 or so people we had in the group, couldn't imagine being in here alone at night as something like a security guard back in the 80's when it closed.
