Have a little read: ... Explain why Prisons were reformed in the early 19th century. There were many reasons as to why prisons were reformed in early nineteenth century England. These reasons fall into four main groups; overcrowding, poor conditions, reformers and changes in laws. One of the reasons for prisons being reformed was that they were overcrowded. Around and during the nineteenth century there was a population explosion in Britain. In 1750 the population was a mere 11 million, which grew to 16 million in 1800 and then increased to a massive 27 million in 1850. In the space of 100 years the population in Britain had more than doubled. The Industrial Revolution also led to a change in population density, as there were more jobs available in the ever-growing industrial cities. People migrated to cities such as Manchester and Liverpool from rural communities as the emphasis changed from agricultural to industrial and manufacturing industries.
