Hidden stories of life inside North’s notorious prisons to be filmed

HIDDEN tales of life inside the North’s infamous jails are to be filmed to protect their legacy for future generations.

Ex-prisoners and wardens will contribute to the archive of memories and stories as part of a new University of Ulster research project.

Both the Maze and Crumlin Road jail in Belfast — where hunger strikes, murders and breakouts added to the drama of conflict — have been shut for years.
