Calling all Junior Jailers, Bodmin Jail invites you and the family to step back in time with the grimy Georgians and villainous Victorians on our brand new Junior Jailers Guided Tour.

Enter the fascinating and often revolting world of crime and punishment at Bodmin Jail and be immersed in the past as our award winning Heritage Guides present history with a dash of black humour, a smear of yuck and a dollop of kid friendly nasty.

What was the punishment for stealing bunnies?  How often did the prisoners wash? How many inmates could you fit in a cell?

Junior Jailers runs Saturdays during school holidays at 10.30 - 12.00 and has been created for brave seven year olds upwards with parental guidance required.

We'll see you in the seventeenth century!
