His Majesty's Young Offenders Institution Polmont is the largest young offender's institution in Scotland. It is located in the village of Reddingmuirhead.
HMP Polmont first opened as a Borstal in 1911 in the buildings of the former Blairlodge Academy. The Academy had been forced to close in 1908 due to financial difficulties and a subsequent outbreak of an infectious disease, and the Prison Commissioners bought the site in 1911.[1]
It is designed to hold up to 760 inmates between the ages of 16 and 21,[2] although there have been several reports and complaints about the presence of inmates younger than 16.[3] Living conditions have also been criticised, including an alleged insufficency of food and the outdated practice of slopping out.[4]
Notable inmates have included murderer Luke Mitchell, Chris Cunningham, star of BBC Scotland's The Scheme, and Aaron Campbell, convicted of carrying out one instance of child abduction, rape and murder.
