Great and very interesting place to wander round with a mix of fixed exhibits and real people talking about life there in the past.Note: they give a 20% discount for people who stay in local hotels, a fact we only learned after we had paid and been round!

although it rained while we visited, we did enjoy it and explored outside - even if it was quick! It was great to see and I liked that you could try things out! Loved the added feature of staff in costume. Certainly worth a visit!!

We where just passing and thought we would pop in and see what it was like and I have to say it's a fantastic museum, very interesting with a great insight to the history of when it was a jail and the courtroom with a trial going on and surrounded by the period figures was very realistic and enjoyable. Highly recommend a visit.

Brilliant display. Well presented, helpful guide and excellent shop. Exhibition a bit pricey but worth it.

Nice place to visit. It can be a little cold as it's a very old building. It feels a little draughty and a little over priced for what you receive.

This is well worth a visit, I have been three times and still enjoy it. The stories around the jail are very interesting and to see how they were treated and how they lived and how the court is set up is really an experience.

Liked the Court with waxwork models re-inacting a murder trial. Quite interesting if it is a rainy day although you have to go outside to gain entrance to the cells.

Thought the exhibit was good, excellent facts, we were advised to skip passed the very first section with our 4,7 & 9 yr olds, which we did.... Gruesome. The court sound system could be much better and it was was difficult to make out but the cells and staff were excellent and played their parts well. I'd say you need 90mins minimum to get all around. Torchure tables very good....
