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"[a] due to the many murderers, rapists and terrorists imprisoned there.[2]
