HISTORY

The Ministry of Justice closed Holloway Prison in 2016 and sold it to developer Peabody in March 2019.

Holloway prison was opened in 1852 as a mixed-gender facility before increasing demand for space resulted in it becoming the first female-only prison in the country in the early 1900s.

When the prison has constructed the area surrounding the site was still only partially developed. However, with the growth associated with industrialisation by the late 1800s the site was surrounded by new buildings – mainly long terraces of housing.

Whilst the original prison was an imposing Victorian structure (called the Castle) it was completely rebuilt between 1971 and 1985.

It was the first female prison in the country. The suffragettes were imprisoned on the site and the prison is symbolic in the history of women’s rights. It has been a site for political protest and campaigns focusing on legal, social and health rights of women over the last 100 years.

Expected final scheme exhibition – September 2020
Women’s building workshop – 3 December 2019
