The outside of the main cell block shows some of the history. The last major update was over 20 years ago, with most of the major done well over 100 years ago.
The outside of the shop block. The reason for the difference in appearance is the fact that much of the building was burnt in on of the 3 big riots of KP. |
Aboriginal Grounds. An area to try and address the unusual high proportion of aboriginal in the prison community. |
View inside the center court of the shop block. |
The inside of the metal ship. The shops were built by prisoners much earlier in the life of the prison. |
Drug sniffing dog foot prints.. |
Intricate brick work in the metal shop ceiling. |
The inside view of the South East corner, site of the last escape. |
Locked screens, with bars just visible behind them.. |
Guard tower from the inside. |
On the west wall, an old entrance was sealed over. |
The Northern Sally Port. A secure location for any vehicle entering or leaving the prison to be able to be inspected. |
The prison is so old, even the newspapers in the waiting room are over 3 years old. |
