DescriptionTreadmill at Brixton Prison in London (cropped).jpg | Treadmill at Brixton Prison in London, c1817, British Library.

The machine was designed by William Cubitt and was able to accommodate up to 24 prisoners at one time. Each prisoner moved along the tread-wheel from left to right until a new prisoner joined at the far end. When 24 prisoners milled, the rest period was 12 minutes every hour. | |||
