It was first opened in May 1972 and comprised eight Nissen huts on the site of an army camp. The prison was divided into compounds to house the various paramilitary factions and was manned by British Army dog handlers and prison staff on detached duty from Scotland, England and Wales as well as some staff from Northern Ireland. The temporary accommodation was later replaced by three H-blocks similar to those at the Maze prison each containing 100 cells. In 1976 the prison wall was built and the prison began to house other prisoners who had been convicted of non-terrorist offences as well some young prisoners including Borstal trainees. In 1977 the trainees were transferred to Woburn House in Millisle and prisoners convicted of scheduled terrorist offences transferred to the Maze. This left Magilligan operating as a 'normal' prison in the context of Northern Ireland prisons. The regime was consequently developed to reflect this. The prison currently has a Certified Normal Accommodation capacity of 568 prisoners. It is a medium to low security prison that held male prisoners who have six years or less to serve and who meet the relevant security classification. These days Magilligan Prison holds lifers and prisoners with many years left to serve. In April 2012, it was announced that the prison would possibly close, part of 10 year plan and is still going ahead but government is keeping this information from the people, as haven't got good title to maghaberry prison, the new site announced by Mr Armour. [1] In fact, in 2017 Magilligan Prison proved to be the best performing jail in Northern Ireland according to an unannounced inspection by the Criminal Justice Inspection Northern Ireland (CJI) and her Majesty's Inspectorate of Prisons in England & Wales (HMIP).[2] References1. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-17818240|title=Magilligan Prison to close in six years time|first=Vincent|last=Kearney|publisher=BBC News Online|date=23 April 2012|accessdate=23 April 2012}} 2. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.cjini.org/TheInspections/Inspection-Reports/2017/October-December/Unannounced-Inspection-of-Magilligan-Prison|title=2017 Unannounced Report for Magilligan Prison|last=|first=|date=|website=|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=}} External links
