HM Prison Edmunds Hill
From 1938 to 1970 the site of this prison was a Royal Air Force base. It was then used as a transit camp for Ugandan Asian refugees, before opening in 1977 as a prison. In 1997 part of the prison (North) was converted to hold women prisoners. Highpoint North and South prisons formally separated in July 2001, and Highpoint North was formally renamed HMP Edmunds Hill in October 2003. In January 2005 the prison became a Category C Male establishment serving East Anglia and the South East.
