Aren't Most Haunted meant to be going there? Or have they been?
A brief description of the gaol:
"Bodmin Gaol, the former County Prison, was built in 1777 and replaced the old Debtor’s Prison (now the Hole-In-The-Wall Public House). The Prison was rebuilt in the 1840s and again in the 1850s each time increasing in size as the population grew. A grand total of 55 hangings took place of which 51 were public hangings. The last public hanging took place in 1909 prior to the prison’s closure in 1922. "

If I recall correctly, they were there a few weeks ago. Sounds like a cracking good venue, but probably too many visitors now  |
