The Tower of London is known as one of the most brutal prisons in the world. Throughout History it has been the site of many brutal executions and it is the site where 3 Queens of England lost their lives. Two of Henry VIII's Queens, Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard were executed on Tower Green, and also Lady Jane Grey (the 9 day queen) perished within the Tower's walls. It was a castle that throughout history has also been a place where torture has occured, for example using the infamous rack on prisoners to get a confession out of them.

Famously there was one other forgotten torture method used at the Tower of London which struck fear into the heart of anyone who entered the infamous and notorious fortress. Little Ease was a tiny dungeon similar to an oubliette which was aimed to inflict horrific suffering onto an individual. The prisoner was forced into a 4 square feet large cell and they could not stand up at all and could not even sit down, being forced to crouch. It's rumoured that Guy Fawkes, the infamous Gunpowder Plotter was also sentenced to a short stay in Little Ease after being placed on the rack.

Little Ease was greatly feared and the prisoner was likely to be left in there and forgotten about for days on end in the pitch black darkness. Today the location of Little Ease is not completely known, and it's considered that it may be found inside the dungeons of the White Tower.
