The Undesirables: A History of Rockhead Prison is the revealing story of Rockhead an imposing structure that was located on Gottingen (now Novalea Drive) and Leeds Streets in Halifax.

Nestled in with the industri working-class North End, for many residents, their backyards were adjacent to the prison.

With the words "City Prison" glaring down at whoever entered or walked by, the edifice stood as warning to those thinking of committing crimes. Many heeded that warning, but many did not, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
