Frithfield LaneAbsolutely amazing and fascinating place to visit. We would highly recommend the 2 hour tour as otherwise you will miss out on so much! Victorian prison only closed in 2013 where many tv shows and films such as Paddington 2 and Des was filmed! One of the most haunted prisons in the UK and the first cells date back to 1600! The Krays also stayed there! They also do ‘a night in a cell’ and ghost tours!
