OUTER WARD GROUND LEVEL 28 WORKROOM.

28 WORKROOM. This rough stone room was once used to effect simple repairs of metal items, especially chains and manacles. A fire pit, now cold and desolate with gray ash, is located in the center of the floor. Wooden tables and racks for holding tools are present. Three large metal vats were once used to hold water and a free-standing hand pump is still here. It works and gives good clean water. Hammers, anvils, and chains are in abundance, along with various metallic tools, such as shovels, tongs, eating utensils, etc. in various states of disrepair.
