Richmond Gaol, (3) Richmond, Tasmania

Back to Richmond Gaol...the second last post about it.
This video goes for a couple of minutes and is worth viewing as it has information about the inside of the Richmond Gaol.
Plus there are photos which I took.




The cat of nine tails was used every second morning for flogging.






The toilets.

Richmond Gaol, Tasmania, Australia.


Recently we visited Richmond and the Richmond Gaol. 
More to come in next post.

The Richmond Gaol is a convict era building and tourist attraction in Richmond, Tasmania, and is the oldest intact gaol in Australia. Building of the gaol commenced in 1825, and predates the establishment of the penal colony at Port Arthur in 1833. 

Richmond gaol has much history, some of it [ here ]
