Debtors' Prison for London and Middlesex, Whitecross Street, London, England
Notes: The London and Middlesex debtors prison in Whitecross Street (on the corner of Fore Street) in Cripplegate was built on the site of the former Peacock Brewhouse between 1813 and 1815, so that debtors could be held separately from convicted felons. The gaol closed in 1870 and in 1876-77 the Midland Railway Company built a goods terminus on the site which, in turn, was destroyed by air-raid in the Second World War.
