The museum explores the lives of people once held at The Clink, including debtors, harlots, heretics, drunkards and religious adversaries. Visitors can discover stories of crime and punishment while learning about the people and events that shaped this infamous prison.
A self guided visit takes guests through the museum’s historic displays, archaeological artefacts and old style torture devices. Visitors can handle selected exhibits and discover how prisoners were punished during the medieval period.
