Torture in the Tower
When you walk into the tower it is hard to imagine that it was once used as a place for torture. However, as soon as you walk in you can visit the Wakefield tower and see a whole exhibit on prisoners and torture in the Tower. There are three different torture devices on display here, the manacle, the rack, and the scavengers daughter. The manacles worked by hanging the victim by their hands, with their arms above there head. The rack stretched the victims out, first raising them off the table, and then dislocating all of their joints. The scavenger's daughter worked in the opposite way and there were two versions. In the Wakefield Tower it crushed the body and in the Spanish Armories of the White tower it twisted the body.
