Yatala Labour Prison is a low- to high-security men''s prison in the northern suburbs of Adelaide, South Australia, Australia. It was built in 1854 to enable prisoners to work at the creek, quarrying rock for roads and construction. Originally known as The Stockade it acquired its current name from a local Aboriginal word. The prison has been expanded many times but still has functioning buildings that date to the 1850s. It remains Adelaide''s main male prison, although it is scheduled to close by 2011 with most of its area converted to residential housing. Yatala prison, originally called The Stockade, was named after the Hundred of Yatala, Yatala being a word from the Weira group of the Kaurnas Aboriginal people meaning water running by the side of a river. It is known as a labour prison by virtue of its vast industries complex and the use of convict labour in construction.
