Fleet Prison
Fleet Prison was a famous London Prison which stood in Farringdon Street,
on what was called Fleet Market, from the River Fleet which flowed into the
Thames. Its keeper was called the Warden of the Fleet. As far back as the
12th century the Fleet served as a Royal Prison.
In the reigns of Mary and Elizabeth I it was used for religious martyrs and
the political victims of the Star Chambers. In 1641 it became a place of
confinement for debtors and persons committed for contempt of court, and
rapidly acquired a notoriety for every kind of brutality and extortion.
It was destroyed and rebuilt several times before being finally abolished in
1842.
