The Old Prison – Northleach

The Old Prison, formerly a House of Correction, is a fascinating 18th Century Grade II* listed building in the Cotswold market town of Northleach.

Built in the 1790’s, it was once a fine example of a model prison used to inspire better care and rehabilitation of prisoners throughout Britain and further afield.  It even served as a blueprint for London’s Pentonville Prison.  

Today it serves as a popular and rather unique Kitchen & Café serving artisan coffees, brunch classics, homemade cakes, lunchtime specials and afternoon teas, all made with locally sourced ingredients. Complementary access is available to the original Prison Cells and Court Room and the fully enclosed garden with outdoor seating houses the Lloyd-Baker wagon collection.

Where? Fosse Way, Northleach, Gloucestershire, GL54 3JH
