The Clink Prison Museum and the Crossbones Graveyard | Medieval London

This video is a walking tour in Southbank that includes a stop at the Clink Prison Memorial and the Crossbones Memorial Graveyard. MORE LONDON WALKS - • Playlist
The tour starts in Southbank at the remains of the Palace of Winchester, in an area once known as the Liberty of the Clink, where you will learn about the palace and the Bishops of Winchester.
Next, you will be taken on a short tour through the Clink Prison Museum, one of the most notorious prisons in London's history.
The tour ends at the Crossbones Graveyard, today a memorial to the Winchester Geese, female prostitutes who worked the area with the permission of the bishops. The cemetery was originally simply a pit where the women were not afforded a proper Christian burial.

I've just 'stumbled' across your videos Sinead and they are awesome. I've been to London a few times over 40 years ago and tbh, I hated it, but I never got to see things that you show on your videos (I've only seen this one and the Coventry Garden one so far, oh and the Graveyard one that has Karl Marx in it). I'm going over to the UK next year (covid providing) and London was most definitely not on my list, but you have changed my mind to that and I think I will spend 1 or 2 days there before I head back to Australia. I will bring a ribbon with me too when I stop at the Crossbones Graveyard to say a prayer for those poor people. You don't just 'visit' places, you bring things to life Sinead, thank you. 🤗

Another little point is that the later clink prison site was then covered by the Courage brewery in Park St - and the whole area was famous for trading hops. The main Hop Exchange being near the London Bridge end of Southwark Street. Before numerical phone numbers came in the phone code for the area was HOP. Not a lot of folk remember that nowadays. I used to visit this area in the fifties with my dad who managed a shop in London Bridge Railway Approach and it was much as it had been for two hundred years. How different it is now!!!!!

@@leary210275 I’ll have a search of those, thanks. Me too! And hospitals. I used to work in one that was an old workhouse. Shortly after it closed the admin part burnt down. Legend has it that what contributed to its intensity was the build up of polish underneath the floorboards!!

[@fizzao1342]

So glad your Jack the Ripper tour - which was superb - came onto my timeline as you are brilliant as a tour guide. Those poor prostitutes! Good enough to tax but not good enough to give hallowed burial.

My pleasure, Fizza. - Sinead

Pls could you do a walk around tour of the Tower of London pls

[@FreeToursbyFootLondon]

Hi Michelle. We have a video already that walks around the Tower kzbin.info/www/bejne/hmG5h42MbKlgp9k. We will soon publish a video tour inside the Tower.

I had a meeting with someone in the Clink before they refurbished it for visitors many years ago with the owner I seem to recall - very atmospheric and amazing creepy atmosphere.

Just around the back of Borough market Zoe worth a look Thanks for watching Sinead

[@taraelizabethdensley9475]

It is fairly small, but certainly a facinating museum. I've visited s few times

[@myrescuecats3028]

I live near the clink that’s a fantastic area for history as is the whole of they U.K.!

[@danapidd6013]

What happened to the remains of these poor souls after they were excavated? Great tour and loads of interesting facts to take in.⚜️

[@FreeToursbyFootLondon]

Noted. Something we need to figure out.

[@steveafanador6441]
