Description

Riverbank opened in 1960 as the first purpose-built maximum-security reformatory for boys, with accommodations for up to 33 teenage offenders. There was a significant emphasis on work-skills training, with an onsite factory that made a range of goods for charities, and the introduction of a computer-aided learning system from 1986. In 1996 the youth facility closed and was re-commissioned as an adult prison in 1998, which remained operational until 2001.
