This is the old Greene County "Gaol" which was built in 1807. It's built of granite and each stone is two feet thick. According to the information plaque, the cells are basically dungeons and have no light or ventilation except for the small grates. Can you imagine being in there during the hot, humid Georgia summers?

Oooooh, coooool.
Oh, wow! I think I prefer my air conditioned home ;-) Very nice shot, and the historical info was fun to read.
It certainly screams jail to me - or castle entrance, given the top of it!
