EDITORS COMMENTS
This historical print captures a scene from the past at Coldbath Field, where prisoners are seen working on a treadmill while others exercise in the vagrants prison. Dating back to 1860, this image provides a glimpse into the harsh realities of prison life in Britain during that time period.
The first treadmill was installed in Brixton Prison in 1817 as a form of punishment and hard labor for inmates. The sight of prisoners toiling away on these treadmills serves as a stark reminder of the strict laws and regulations that governed society during this era.
The image also highlights the contrast between those who are forced to work on the treadmill and those who have chosen to exercise voluntarily. It is a poignant reminder of the different paths individuals may take in life, whether by choice or circumstance.
Overall, this print from Mary Evans Picture Library offers viewers a rare glimpse into the history of prisons and law enforcement practices in Britain. It serves as an important reminder of how far we have come in terms of criminal justice reform and human rights since the days when treadmills were used as punishment devices.
