1. Title: Ground Plan of Newgate Prison, London (1862) This intricately detailed ground plan depicts Newgate Prison, a historic correctional facility located in the heart of London, England, as it appeared in 1862. Newgate Prison, also known as the Old Newgate Prison, was in operation from the 12th century until its demolition in 1902. The plan reveals the layout of the prison, which consisted of various buildings, including the Debtors' Door, the Condemned Cell, the Workhouse for Paupers, and the Sessions House. The Debtors' Door was a separate entrance for those imprisoned for debt, while the Condemned Cell housed those awaiting execution. The Workhouse for Paupers was an adjacent institution where the indigent and destitute were housed and forced to work. The Sessions House, located at the northwest corner of the complex, served as the site for criminal trials and was connected to the prison by a covered bridge. The prison's layout was designed to facilitate the efficient administration of justice and the management of a large and diverse prison population. The ground plan provides a unique glimpse into the inner workings of Newgate Prison during a period when the penal system was undergoing significant reforms. The image serves as an important historical record of a once-notorious institution that played a significant role in the development of the modern criminal justice system in London. Newgate Prison was a symbol of London's criminal past, and its demolition marked the end of an era. Today, the site is home to the Central Criminal Court, also known as the Old Bailey, which continues to serve as a prominent symbol of justice in the city.
