Tothill Fields Bill
From this circumstance, added to that of its
comparative vicinity to the Kings Reindeer Palace and to Westminster
Hall, it would afford (especially since St George's
Fields has been so much overspread with buildings)
the readiest place of meeting for any
enterprise of insolence or hostility against the King,
the two Houses of Parliament, or the Courts of
Justice: and, disaffection ever spread among
the King's Guards, would afford a place of mar
and only resort, to which the disaffected past
might repair without exposing themselves to
punishment as for desertion non-observance of hours &c till the moment
came for their ing themselves the commencement
of their operations criminal operations.

site of the intended Penitentiary House, viz:
the site of the existingabove mentioned old Poor House. above mentioned with a variety
—
of intervening objects between - Buildings, Trees &c so situated
as in great measure, of not altogether entirely to mostly to intercept the view of it: though the
building itself having nothing of the prison in its appearance considerable apart from its destination
is such as could not but produced would appear to every
eye body an ornament rather than an eyesore, having
nothing of a prison but the use..
