Kent / Re: Prison info (Chatham 1881)
« on: Wednesday 07 December 16 00:28 GMT (UK) »
Hi Guys,
I'm new to the site but can advise that the convict prison in Chatham became part of Chatham Dockyard and is situated where the University is now. You would probably need the crowns or magistrates permission for historic details regarding incarceration, they may still hold the details.
The prison in Borstal wasn't built until around this period but probably wasn't fully functioning during the 1800s.
