Prisons in YORKSHIRE: how this regional group works

What this page is for

This article helps you understand how we group prisons under “YORKSHIRE” in our England and Wales directory. It is a companion to the regional listing, not a substitute for official prison finder tools.

Use it to see how many establishments fall under this regional label in our current import, and to jump to individual profiles or the full regional grid.

How the regional group is defined

We include 7 establishments whose administrative region in the import matches “YORKSHIRE”. Region names and boundaries follow the source data; if a site sits near a border, check the establishment profile and official listings.

Figures and labels on Prisons Online come from the HMPPS prison export used in this build. Security category and function wording are administrative fields in that source (and category may be inferred where the export does not map cleanly). Always confirm visiting rules, contact details, and regime information with official HMPPS or GOV.UK sources.

Examples from the current import

Illustrative entries include: HMP Hatfield, HMP Humber, HMP Leeds, HMP Lindholme, HMP Wealstun. Every named establishment in this group appears in the related list below with a link to its profile.
