HMP Wolds is a prison located south west of Everthorpe, East Riding of Yorkshire, England. It opened in April 1992 as a remand prison and in 1993 was re-roled to a local category B prison holding sentenced prisoners. It was the first private prison to be opened in the United Kingdom.

Wolds Prison is now for Mid term Category C prisoners (including second stage lifers). Six units of single and double cells (some single cells have been doubled up accommodate extra prisoners). The regime at the prison includes education (full time, evening classes and residential college), workshops, gardens and a works department.
