During our visit to Anglesey, we went to Beaumaris and took the opportunity to experience what a Victorian Jail was like for the inmates. We were shocked to see some of the punishments given to inmates, discovered interesting facts about how water was filtered in the jail grounds and were a little spooked by some of the ghostly tales!
