Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Vagrants, beggars, and delinquents would be forced to work in Houses of Corrections as a form of discipline and punishment during early modern times. Bridewells were also used for similar purposes, but were primarily for housing criminals and were not as focused on rehabilitation through work. Jails were used primarily for holding criminals before trial or punishment, and monastic confinement was a form of punishment only used for religious offenses.
