Former gaol cell block in Dean Road Depot
Looking across the yard of Dean Road Depot to the former gaol cell block within the depot. The prison was designed in 1866 by the local architect William Baldwin Stewart and the Borough Engineer Alexander Taylor to replace the Borough Gaol on Castle Road; it cost £8,755. It was designed to be a model prison with advanced facilities. Stewart designed it to look like a castle; and here the cell blocks are designed to emulate a castle 'keep'.
