This wood engraving by Gustave Dore captures the essence of a bygone era. Delve into history with a detailed map from Redcar & Cleveland TS6 9, revealing the location within London's bustling streets. The city walls, as depicted in Civitas Londinium's woodblock print, stand as silent witnesses to centuries past.

Experience the chilling reality through Dickens' eyes at the Entrance to Newgate Prison. The horrors of war come alive on Blitz-stricken streets during WW2. Picture yourself standing amidst the rubble and chaos on Newgate Street in City of London, feeling both fear and resilience. Travel further back in time to merry-making days on Regent's birthday in 1812. George Cruikshank's etching brings this festive scene alive, reminding us that even within prison walls like those at Newgate, joy could still be found. Escape to Cliftonville, Kent and breathe in fresh sea air at tranquil Newgate Gap. Let your mind wander along Victorian-era streets like Morpeth or Bishop Auckland's charmingly named Newgate Street from early 1900s. Finally, witness an act of compassion as Elizabeth Fry reads scriptures within the confines Prison. Her dedication towards prisoners' welfare shines a light on humanity amidst darkness. Newgate holds stories untold - tales filled with despair and hope; pain and redemption; loss and resilience. Step into its rich tapestry woven across centuries - for it is here that history whispers its secrets.
