Notorious Glasshouse To Be Demolished At Aldershot
The British army plans to demolish the Glasshouse, Aldershot’s notorious prison with a grim reputation. Built in 1869, it held prisoners under a strict routine and shocked Canadian soldiers who arrived in 1949. The derelict building once housed about 200 inmates and was a symbol of punitive discipline in allied forces.
