The Tower of London is a notorious castle known throughout history as a place of immense torture and brutality. It is the site where 3 of England's Queens lost their heads, Anne Boleyn, Catherine Howard and Lady Jane Grey. It was the castle where Guy Fawkes was tortured and many of Henry VIII's enemies would also be tortured using the Rack.

It is famous for it's reputation of torture however there is a hidden dungeon, a tiny cell which today isn't visible to the eye that lies inside the Tower of London. Little Ease is a 1.2 square metre cell found inside a wall at the Tower and it was used to torture prisoners, and they would be forced to spend long periods inside this horrific cramped cell. It was too small for a prisoner to lie down in and stand up in, so a prisoner would be forced to just crouch for days on end.

Eventually the torture inside Little Ease would force a prisoner to wish their life away, and it was an effective method of gaining a confession. Even Guy Fawkes would find himself inside Little Ease. So join us today as we look at the Tower of London's Hidden Dungeon, Little Ease.
