Plaque: Marshalsea 1 - stone - round
Melancholy streets, in a penitential garb of soot, steeped the souls of the people who were condemned to look at them out of windows, in dire despondency.
Quoted from Chapter 3 of Little Dorrit.
Site: Marshalsea Prison - Angel Alley (5 memorials)
SE1, Borough High Street, Angel Alley
We've put the pin for these 5 plaques at the entrance to the alleyway. In our picture you can see the old wall, the steel plaque and the first of the stone plaques which are laid into the ground of the alley at intervals.
