Gnosall Village Lock-up
"The village is also home to an old "Lock up".(14th Century) It is now situated between the Norman Church and the modern cemetery, and is visible from the A518, bound for Stafford. The purpose was as a mini prison, and it fits the bill with sinister efficiency visually, with its strong riveted and bolted door, no windows or other openings and thick sandstone walls. It was originally located nearer to where the mini round-about is now situated, but was carefully moved, brick by brick.(in 1931)" Quoted from Wikipedia.

The Gnosall Lock-up
Dating from 1820, and originally located at the junction of High Street, Brookhouse Road and Stafford Street (ie roughly at the sharp bend on the main road in Image), this windowless building was erected at the request of the town's Select Vestry (an early form of town council) who were concerned that no facilities existed locally for the proper confinement of criminals.
In the end, it had little use, and fell into disrepair in the mid 20th century, then was all but demolished when a vehicle struck it in 1969 or 1970. At the insistence of the local Women's Institute, it avoided being relocated to Shugborough Hall, and was moved to a small parcel of land donated for the purpose of its preservation in 1971.
