Steelhouse Lane is one of the oldest lock ups in the country with a Grade 2 listed status which means many of the original feature such as the wooden cell doors cannot be changed. The foreboding interior is basic and retains its original Victorian features throughout the levels, landings and cells. After entering the gaol contact with the outside world is lost within the stark surroundings of this 120 year old prison. It once was the most feared place in Birminghams slums. In the basement an underground tunnel provides a secure link to the adjacent Victorian Courts, continuing their fateful journey to a harsh justice.
