File:Microcosm of London Plate 012 - Pass Room, Bridewell (alt).jpg

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Original file(833 × 634 pixels, file size: 101 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg)

Description The Pass Room at Bridewell from Ackermann's Microcosm of London (1808-11). Drawing by Thomas Rowlandson and Augustus Pugin. At this time paupers from outside London apprehended by the authorities could be imprisoned for seven days before being sent back to their own parish. Ackermann refers to the room used here as being for "one class of miserable females" amongst the paupers; presumably mentioning the existence of single mothers would have been unacceptable to his readership. This engraving was published as Plate 12 of Microcosm of London (1808) (see File:Microcosm of London Plate 012 - Pass Room, Bridewell.jpg).
