HM Prison Frankland is a Category A men's prison located in the village of Brasside in County Durham, England. Frankland is operated by His Majesty's Prison Service, and is located next to HM Prison Low Newton, a closed women's prison.
The prison has been nicknamed "Monster Mansion" alongside HM Prison Wakefield due to the high number of murderers, rapists and terrorists imprisoned there.
