Description
The Old Gaol, built in 1805 by George Moneypenny, is a three-storey building located on Jewry Street. Originally, it consisted of this central block along with two wings featuring angle pavilions, one of which still exists as part of No 12. The structure is made of yellow stock brick with rusticated and vermiculated stone quoins, a stone cornice, and a pediment. It has five sash windows with glazing bars and arched heads on the first floor. The roof is not visible, and there is a modern shop front on the ground floor. The design shows the influence of G. Dance's Newgate Prison from 1770. The Old Gaol, along with No 11A (Congregational Church) and No 12, forms a group.
