I have been trying to determine where prisoners (in particular women) entered London’s Newgate Prison in 1816. There appears to be only three main entrances into Newgate Prison, one via the debitor's door (on that left side of the building), and another via the Keepers lodgings. There is a door to the right of the prision although I can't determine the name of the entry point.
There are another two entry points at the side of the jail, one leading into the condemned cells, and one leading to the Old Bailey.
I need to determine where women entered prior to their trials when brought directly from a magistrate - not the court (although that may be the right entrance), and two, where they would have had leg irons put on within the jail.
Any suggestions?[FONT="][/FONT]
