Background
HM Prison Friarton (later Friarton Detention Centre, Friarton Borstal and Friarton Hall Young Offenders Institution) was a place of detention for young (male) offenders aged between 16 and 21. It was located on the outskirts of Perth, Scotland, opposite the southern end of the city's Friarton Island. It occupied the former site of Friarton Fever Hospital, designed by Perth natives J. & G. Young. Upon its opening in 1963, it became one of two such establishments in Scotland, the other being South Inch House (what is now HM Prison Glenochil) in Clackmannanshire. The facility was established after South Inch House reached its capacity.
