The structure to the right of No. 8 is the old city jail. However, it's really just a headhouse or superstructure covering the entrance. The jail is actually mostly underground, a series of tunnels carved into the rockface behind as well as beneath.
Clifton still has a lot of the character of the old 1870s mining town it is.
