WE MIGHT

Year 5 might go to a clink prison museum.

The Clink Prison Museum is built upon the original site of The Clink Prison, which dating back to 1144 was one of England’s oldest and most notorious prisons.

Spanning for over 600 years, it witnessed a remarkable amount of social and political change in England, and thus housed a multitude of sinners throughout its existence, including debtors, heretics, drunkards, harlots, and later religious adversaries.

...

Visitors will learn all about this scandalous truth of Old Bankside through

a hands-on educational experience, with the opportunity to view

archaeological artefacts, handle torture devices, and to view

and hear all about the tales of torment and many misfortunes of the

inmates of the infamous Clink Prison.

Positioned in the heart of modern day Southwark, the prison was

situated in an area that has long been associated with more raucous,

vivacious and unruly behaviour; it was the louder,

ruder and wickeder neighbour to The City, and a place

where Londoners sought entertainment.
