Off Mansfield Road, Farnsfield, Notts.
This Grade II-listed village lock-up on the east side of Mansfield Road was completed on 1 August 1850. Lock-ups originated during the C18th when rural communities struggled to deal with thefts, burglaries, shootings, drunkenness, the obstruction of watchmen and the theft of livestock. They were intended to be temporary places of detention until rogues and miscreants could be removed to a town. This one is occasionally open to the public on annual "Scarecrow Days" held within the village. Temporary holding facilities like this became redundant after the 1893 County Police Act made police stations with secure cells compulsory. A public footpath exists at one side of the building that pedestrians can use to mount a slope that leads to the cricket ground. Its slate roof and the second of its two lozenge-shaped ventilation openings are particularly evident. Of course, no provision existed for heating the premises.
