First built as a convict prison to house the labour used to build a series of forts, to protect Chatham Dockyard against a landward attack by the French, it became the experiment for a new system of youth justice which spread across the country and around the Empire.
Take a step back in time to learn about the history of a prison which celebrates its 150th anniversary in 2024.
