The 1807 Newgate disaster or the Old Bailey Accident of 1807 was a human crush that occurred outside London's Newgate Prison on 23 February 1807. The disaster occurred when part of a large, dense crowd that had gathered to witness a triple execution, was destabilised after being disturbed by a collapsing wooden cart, which triggered a chain of events leading to a fatal crowd crush. Many fatalities and severe injuries resulted, with newspapers reporting that at least 27 perished in the accident and one observer counting at least 34 dead.

- La tragedia di Newgate del 1807 è un riferimento ai fatti avvenuti la sera del 23 febbraio 1807, a Londra, presso la prigione di Newgate. Il disastro avvenne quando gran parte della densa folla presente per una tripla esecuzione presso la prigione di Newgate si diede alla fuga dopo essere disturbata da un carro di legni che si rovesciò a terra innescando una serie di eventi fatali. Ne risultarono diversi morti e feriti. (it)
