[edit]If anyone's interested, I've proposed a new wikiproject for the creation of articles regarding specific prisons here. --Cdogsimmons (talk) 01:49, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
Location
[edit]I've put the {{coord}} template on the east side of Wood St towards the bottom. The best I can do for the location is that it was on the east side, out of sight of the street behind some houses, between St Peters and St Michaels [1] Was Mitre Court the original access street? The satellite pics show that block being redeveloped, was there archaeology done as part of the planning process?82.3.241.225 (talk) 17:17, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
- Having unearthed the summary of the dig at One Wood St, it seems it must have been just north of Mitre Court - or it was on the site of the wine cellars but they ripped out everything before letting their wine near two-centuries-worth of prisoner detritus!!!! 82.3.241.225 (talk) 20:17, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

[edit]What is comput 102.89.34.13 (talk) 18:40, 24 October 2023 (UTC)
- Assuming you are asking "what is a compter?" - See Compter: "A compter, sometimes referred to as a counter, was a type of small English prison controlled by a sheriff. The inmates were usually civil prisoners, for example dissenters and debtors." Paul W (talk) 09:11, 25 October 2023 (UTC)
