Debtors Prison, The Clink Prison Museum, Bankside, London
After the Statute of Acton Burnell (1283 AD) allowed creditors to imprison their debtors till they were repaid, the Clink found itself with another source of human misery to exploit.
Henceforth it was known as the debtors prison until the end of it's days, witnessing the humiliation of countless men and women at the hands of sadistic creditors and jailers.
