Newgate Prison was a prison at the corner of Newgate Street and Old Bailey Street just inside the City of London, England, originally at the site of Newgate, a gate in the Roman London Wall. Built in the 12th century and demolished in 1904, the prison was extended and rebuilt many times, and remained in use for over 700 years, from 1188 to 1902.

I wish the video had been longer. From 1st of April it was £18 for the Cutty Sark and £18 for the Royal Observatory, combined ticket £27. A snippet of information. James Thornhill was the first British artist to be knighted. I have many more snippets (and a couple of corrections) but will keep quiet. 😊 I live about ten minutes by cycle from Greenwich.
