Description

The lock-up, built in the 19th century, is located against the bank that now borders a car park on Bow Road in Wateringbury. It features three sides made of random rubble stone and has a flat roof covered with cement paving slabs. The northern face has an arched doorway, although the wooden dome above it is damaged. Currently, the structure is used as a hut for road maintenance.
