DISORDERLY HOUSE

This article appears in Volume V08, Page 313 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: DIO-DRO
DISORDERLY HOUSE , in law, a
house
  in which the conduct of its inmates is such as to become a public
nuisance
 , or a
house
  where persons congregate to the probable disturbance of the public peace or other commission of crime. In
England
 , by the Disorderly Houses Act 1751, the
term
  includes common bawdy houses or brothels,' common gaming houses, common betting houses and disorderly places of entertainment. The keeping of such is a misdemeanour punishable by fine or imprisonment, and in the
case
  of a brothel also punishable on
summary
  conviction by the Criminal Law Amendment Act 1885; the letting out for gain for indiscriminate
prostitution
  of a room or rooms in a house will make it as much a brothel in law as if the whole house were let out for the purpose. Where, however, a woman occupies a house or room which is frequented by men for the purpose of committing fornication with her, she cannot be convicted of keeping a disorderly house. See also
PROSTITUTION
 .
