Visit the award winning Museum of Law Trust: Galleries of Justice, based at the Lace Market in the heart of Nottingham City. This historic site is located in the heart of the City's Lace Market. It was in use as courts and prisons from the 1780s to the 1980s - although there has been a court on the site since at least 1375 and a prison since 1449.
The Site features exciting interactive exhibitions and tours, incorporating the Citizen's Zone, which provides an innovative national and regional Citizenship and Crime Reduction learning resource - covering social and moral rights and responsibilities, community involvement and legal literacy.
Travel on an atmospheric tour through three centuries of crime and punishment - where the lives and crimes of the unfortunate men, women and children who once occupied these very buildings are brought vividly to life. Witness a real trial in the original Victorian Courtroom and put your friends and family in the dock, before being sentenced, and `sent down` to the original prison cells, laundry, medieval caves and authentic prison exercise yard - with its chilling last views from the gallows!
