True Crimes - Victorian Times - 26th February 2025
We are delighted to present Dave Cable, a renowned historian, researcher, and author. Over the years, Dave has uncovered some truly fascinating facts about Shepton Mallet Prison, from the original plans dating back to the 1800s to the stories of individual prisoners and staff members.
For this special "Evening Behind Bars," Dave will take us on a journey back in time as we explore the wicked past of four characters who each spent time in Shepton Mallet Gaol. From petty crime to insanity—did the punishment fit the crime? Join us as we delve into their stories, discover their fates, and explore whether the harsh conditions and sentences they endured were truly justified.
