Has anyone been to Derby Gaol? If so did you experience anything weird...

Cornmarket - St Peter's Street
(Written by Wayne Anthony & Richard Felix)
       
Many of Derby's current  residents are unaware that as they cross the junction of St. Peter's Street and the Cornmarket, they are in fact walking over the site of Derby's first County Gaol. This prison was first used in the 16th century and was to operate until 1756.
It was in 1610 that a tragic event took place.
The gaol had been built alongside the Markeaton Brook and after a period of steady rain the water level began to rise.
       
Soon the brook had burst its banks and began to flood the gaol. In the case of the 3 prisoners who were in a cell below the water line it was  to be a fatal occurrence. With nowhere for the water to escape they suffered  the awful death of being slowly drowned in their cell.
       
Over the years many people have spoken of the ghostly sounds of three men crying vainly for help. A lady who worked at the Mark's & Spencer's store on St. Peter's Street told how she was leaving work late one night when she heard what she believed to be someone injured lying nearby.
       
Wandering to where the gaol had once stood she realised that the noises were coming from beneath the road which now runs along the course of the Markeaton Brook.
       
"A ghostly wail", was how she described the noise. "That  night I couldn't sleep" she remarked.
 "Every time I closed my eyes I could hear the voices of these men pleading for help".
       
It was a help that had never arrived for them in their lifetime and it  seems that something remains in that area - maybe waiting in eternity for help to finally arrive.
