Description

From 1928 this afforestation camp acted as a site for receiving trusted or low-risk prisoners, who undertook outdoor work and training. It underwent expansions across the 1960s and by the mid 1970s accommodated 95 prisoners. This remains the capacity of the facility,?now known as the Glen Innes Correctional Centre. Today it is classified as a minimum-security prison for men, receiving both sentenced felons and those undergoing a pre-release programme to prepare for re-entry into the community.
