Summary[edit]

Description This photograph dates from 1865 and shows William Jarvis in the stocks overseen by a member of the Warwickshire Constabulary. Mr. Jarvis had been convicted of drunkenness and although the use of the Pillory in England had been banned by an Act of Parliament in 1837, the use of the stocks continued until the early 1870s. The Police Constable is still wearing the old style swallowtail tunic and top hat which the Metropolitan Police had discarded in favour of the tailless tunic and helmet the year before. Warwickshire Constabulary had been formed in 1857 under the County and Borough Police Act 1856.
