HM Prison Geelong

Whilst this small prison isn't as famous as many others around the world, it still has a short but interesting history. Where should such an article like this go from here for improvement? -- Longhair | Talk 16:10, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)

You could use a very simple timeline (see m:Help:EasyTimeline syntax) instead of the list. It would be nice to get a bit of context: what was the situation that led to the prison being built, was there parliamentary/local debate about it, how does the prison relate to its surroundings...

A picci of the gaol would be good. A brief description of what "panopticon" means would be useful. A brief history of the key inmates would be useful. Were there any notable events (eg breakouts/riots) in the gaol's history? For much of its period it was a hospital gaol, although that wasn't the original intention of building it, why? jguk 00:10, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
