Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: The walls and main gate of Beaumaris Prison Beaumaris Gaol was designed by Joseph Hansom, of "Hansom cab" fame and built in 1829. It was later expanded in 1867. It served as the jail for the whole of the Island of Anglesey. There were two executions at the gaol, those of William Griffith for the attempted murder of his wife and of Richard Rowlands (Dic Rolant)for the murder of his father in law. With his dying breath Dic cursed the clock of St Mary and St Nicholas Church. The prison was closed in 1878. It then served as the town's police station. It is now a museum.
