- The Best Museum in London - The Clink Prison Museum
Passing this hidden away Clink Prison Museum on many of my London walks - and incidentally, they call this the best museum in London.
I felt it was time to film inside The Clink to show the astonishing history.
The Clink dates back to the 16th century and can be found at: Clink Street, SE1 9DG
www.clink.co.uk/
Join me as I walk through hundreds of years of prison cells, original stone walls, torture & atmosphere of 16th century London

Wow another amazing area with so much history. Thankyou for these types of vlogs and thankyou for appreciating the forgotten history people just pass by day by day.
When you are bored of London, you are bored of life - someone once said
So true
Great content really enjoyed it 👌 👍
Thank you Steve
Brilliant Museum ....never knew it existed will definitely visit ....thank you for the information
Well worth a look 👍
So I was thinking, lovely… nice bit of
Gregorian chant music to start how scary can this be? Dear me! 😱 we certainly wouldn’t want to be around in those days, those poor souls. The old Judge was harsh and heartless sounding wasn’t he? Phew! I think after that a glass of wine in the Anchor would have been most deserving. Again, another enjoyable but scary watch. 😀
Thank you 🙏🏻
Really appreciate it Jay, thank you

Really interesting mate, I love those sort of attractions, museums depicting past life. Sort of reminded me of the Jorvik Viking Centre in York.
I find it so interesting Kevin
Very interesting vlog we'll done

Very kind Simon, it means alot
Really interesting love history x
Very good presenter.great vid.
Thank you, appreciate it
Thoroughly enjoyed that one… and now I know where the word clink comes from
There you go. ""Clink"
Very happy you enjoyed, thank you Tim
Just subscribed to your channel a brilliant video
Thank you Deborah
Nice one fella, just catching up with your videos and "ouch" that boot torture sounds slowly painful.
Indeed Tony
Another great one. I imagine we have all heard the term "going to clink" but now we really know what that was about. I also guess Clink is nothing like it was in those times. Very eerie place but great filming once again. Excellent choice of music.
Thank you Thelma as always 🙂
Another great vlog thank you Darren, I wonder how many spirits are hanging around in that place?? 🤔 Could use Some of those restraints on the yobs today lol x
Thank you Lou........ i agree with your comment regarding restraints 🙂
DJ, going through you older videos at the moment so I don't know if you will get the comment,this was interesting,spooky, historical, factual with great narration and background music(good job I'm watching in the daytime😂)Cheers mate and take care✌️🍸
Thanks Martin
@@DarrenJohn I'm glad you saw the well deserved positive comment 👍 your last sub total I saw was 4.9k! So close buddy, martini's on Macmaster,just has to be a live celebration 😂 good luck to you and see you in the next one✌️🍸🍻
Bit spooky-thanks for uploading 👻
Thank you, not too scary I hope 🙂
I really appreciate you training your camera on the text signs mounted next to the exhibits. So often in these kinds of videos the host passes these things too quickly to read. Fascinating place!
Thank you so much
Have been to the clink, is a very spooky place, apparently the building is haunted!
Great little hidden gem
So now I know where the term 'throw him in the clink' comes from. Always thought it was slang for prison cell.
It makes you embrace history doesn't it Tony 👍
Another interesting vlog big up mr john
Thanks Mark 👍
A brilliant one! but where was the ducking stool?
Thank you Tricia, ducking stool would of been opposite The Anchor pub, along the river side
300 years of my family in that immediate area, my irish gt x 3 grandparents came there to may pole alley, by the crossbones graveyard. long gone now. that bishop of winchester was an evil piece of work
History fascinates me Johanna
@@DarrenJohn me too, im always down some rabbit hole of history! Doing my ancestry has been such an amazing thing, i recently discovered the bare knuckle pugilist richard humphreys was my 5th gt grandfather
lol the entrance of the museum is like the entrance of a theme park haunted house
👍🙂
Off the CHARTS good day out Clink on it
Great place to visit
We visited. It's alright but not worth the £8 entrance fee as nothing is original except for a wall and it's a very short tour. 1 and done.
Very haunted place is the clink
the clink prison in London...
it's like Azkaban!
Great museum
Wouldn't call it the best as its not very big. Its ok but doesn't warrant a 2nd visit. Museum of London is the best.
