Still listed as a common gaol in the 1818 Return, though its accompanying description suggested it had more or less become a lock up, a state of affairs confirmed in 1833. The Prison Inspectors described the Totness lock up as four cells adjoining town hall, likely the former Totness Prison described in earlier sources. Last appears in the penal statistics for 1839.
