looks like we had the very same thought but I am sure it was not built with any kindness more the threat of a flogging in truth from those days, HFF all the very best to you.

HFF, Steve. The cottages seem quite pleasant in contrast to the intimidating prison itself.

Keep yourself safe (and dry) this weekend.

Steve Paxton club has replied to Old Owl club
I was told the entrance to the prison was built to intimidate with its size and strength, I hope you have been inside to see just how bad it really was . @ 6'3" I could not lie on the bed the cell is so small you hardly have room to turn. No running water, no power, No toilet, no room to walk around and definalty not one luxury. you had to leave your cell to get any relief from the confinement and find a few of the luxuries we take for granted on the outside.. Closed in 1991 in very much the same way it started. HFF yes has been a very wet weekend much the same as the rest of this season.
