What's NEW for 2018

Published on 06 March 2018

The on-going development of the Jail site has enabled us to add more features to enhance our visitor experience – this month we have introduced:

Ghost Walks

– every Wednesday night from 8.30pm to the witching hour… take a guided walk through Bodmin Town to view key points and buildings, and hear all about their historical and paranormal links with the jail, finishing with a Paranormal Tour of the jail.

Timeline Room

– learn about the history of the jail and our plans for the future…

Heritage Guides

– we now have friendly free-roaming guides within the jail; pass the time of day in the knowledgeable company of Jess and Kirsten and learn more about the jail, its history, future and its nefarious past residents. We also have personal Guided Tours available to book in advance.

Paranormal Room

– discover more about the science of paranormal.
