Grade II listed former village lockup, Bridge Street, Ruabon
The 18th century roundhouse near the Vaults pub http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4842816 (formerly the Roundhouse pub)
has small openings in the wall with iron bars across. This was the village lockup, which was used for the temporary detention of people, typically drunks who were usually released the next day. It was also used to hold people being brought before the local magistrate. The building was Grade II listed in 1963.

The Vaults pub and a roundhouse, Ruabon
Located on the B5605 Bridge Street. The roundhouse is possibly the more interesting building here, as it was a village lock-up, an overnight jail for drunks and ne'er-do-wells. The building is appropriately placed near to at least three pubs, as well as the church. They may be expected to perform a hungover prayer of forgiveness, afterwards.
