Description: The House of Confinement (known locally as the 'Stone Jug' consists of two cells and is listed as a Grade II building built between 1823 and 1826, after the Pentrich Revolution. In the Alfreton Poor Law Records of 25th August 1826, the overseer of the poor, a John Kemp, includes an item 'For cleaning the House of Confinement - 6pence'. The building was mainly used to let the inmates sober up before moving to Derby jail. During 1846 a new four cell jail within a new police station was built on the site where the Abraham Lincoln Library building now stands, costing about 600 pounds sterling to build. It is reported that Mr. Evans a local chimney sweep use to 'off-load' his daily soot collection inside the House of Confinement.
