Bechers Court

The site sits on the edge of the Southwell Minster Burgage and dates back to the early 1800s when it was originally developed as a House of Correction in 1808, designed by Richard Ingleman, and included two innovative prison designs, the radial and polygonal forms. The design was evolved around the two grade 2 listed buildings which remain from the house of correction with cues taken in form and materiality from the original buildings.
