Newgate-Exercise Yard Charles James Richardson The soldiers can be seen'Newgate Exercise Yard', 1872. View of prisoners excercising at Newgate Prison, Old Bailey, London. Taken from London: A Pilgrimage by Blanchard Jerrold and Gustave Dor.

Several were upset that Jerrold and Dor had concentrated on the poverty that existed in London.
