Abstract:
Details the practice of imprisonment, conditions, and gaol buildings in the city from the medieval period to the early twentieth-century. Particularly, the 1797 County Gaol designed by John Nash which stood on Bye Street outside the City Walls. The main buildings were demolished in 1930, however, comprehensive survey drawings made in 1925, photographs taken in 1930 and recent archaeological work have led to a much more detailed analysis of this complex than had previously been possible.
