Darling Downs Correctional Centre

Details

The Darling Downs Correctional Centre was an open custody facility located 15 kilometres south west of the city of Toowoomba in southern Queensland. It was run by the Queensland Government. The site was previously home to the Westbrook Youth Detention Centre which closed in 1994. In the same year the site was transformed into an adult correctional centre that maintained an on-site farm and ran a dairy. Upon closure of the facility, the herd of approximately 240 dairy cattle was sold off at auction. The Darling Downs Correctional Centre was closed in August 2012 and the property was put up for sale.
