Three months later the prison governor, Thomas Bambridge, moved him under protest to a sponging house where there was a case of smallpox, which he contracted and from which he died before the end of the same year. As a result of this and other cases of abuse a House of Commons committee was set up to investigate the current state of prisons. Their report, delivered to the House on 20 March 1729 included details of Castell`s death, and as a result Bambridge was charged with murder. He was tried and acquitted; Castell`s widow lodged an appeal and Bambridge was re-tried and once more acquitted. The Villas of the Ancients was published in July 1729, making the most of the publicity Castell was receiving from his widow`s appeal. Most of the original 117 subscribers were MPs or lawyers drawn together in the interests more of prison reform than architecture Visit www.dnfa.com for condition reports
