About the escape room
Opening in 1847, Stirling’s New County Jail – known today as the Old Town Jail – was the last Reformed Prison built in Victorian Scotland. It was a last attempt to put education, training and rehabilitation at the heart of Scotland’s penal system. This process worked remarkably well, for a while at least… Cost cutting, politics and a return to brutal discipline, sadly, undermined Reforms. Before falling into dereliction, the Jail became Scotland’s first, and only, Military Detention Barracks – between 1888 and 1935. You can still see original inmates carvings on surviving cell doors, as you explore
