This guided prison tour is a fun and educational experience where you'll spend time learning what prison life was like for the former prisoners who served their sentences there.Â
Choose from Shrewsbury Prison in Shropshire or Shepton Mallet Prison in Somerset. Both of these historic prisons have a wealth of stories to tell.Â
You'll explore the history of the prison dating back over 400 years, and get to see the cells, healthcare rooms, executioner’s bedroom, and even the condemned prisoner’s cell.Â
This a great no-holds-barred guided tour led by an ex prison Officer who can shed a real light on what life was like for the prisoners, officers and visitors coming to the prison.
Once you've finished exploring, find some light relief in the prison Museum gift shop where you can find something to take home as well as the unique memories of your time behind bars. Finish the day in the prison cafe where you’ll find a lovely selection of light bites, cakes and drinks.
