Newgate Prison
Newgate Prison was a long running prison in the city of London, operating in one fashion or another for over 700 years. It took on great cultural meaning in England (London in particular) to represent crime in general. An entire literary tradition was spawned by the infamous prison called “Newgate Novels”. Repeatedly demolished and rebuilt throughout the centuries it saw use, its final form was a large, imposing building of dark stonework with a few windows set high above street level. It was finally demolished for good in 1904.
