Summary
It was established in 1188, under the reign of King Henry II. What was constructed out of a group of cells housed in London’s city walls above the ‘New Gate’ gatehouse soon became known as a place of darkness and despair. Nicknamed ‘Hell on Earth’ the prison became so synonymous with terror and misery that even the hangman’s noose became a welcome escape. Let’s travel back in time now to the Middle Ages and find out what life was like at the notorious Newgate prison. Welcome to Medieval Madness.
