Save Shepton Mallet prison from redevelopment

Shepton Mallet prison closed its doors as a working prison in 2013. Since then it has become a tourist attraction with many people taking part in guided tours or conducting paranormal investigations. The prison has so much history. Over 400 years to be exact. To see it demolished we’d lose all that!
