Cold Creek Correctional Facility (CCCF) was a Tennessee Department of Correction prison located in unincorporated Lauderdale County, Tennessee, near Henning.[1] CCCC is now the West Tennessee State Penitentiary (WTSP) Site #1.[2] The prison facility was previously named the Western Tennessee Penal Farm and the Fort Pillow State Penal Farm.[3]
The Western Tennessee Penal Farm originally opened in December 1937.[3] As of July 13, 1998 the institution supported a 6,000 acres (2,400 ha) farming operation.[1] In 1999 the Cold Creek Correctional Facility closed. CCCF was replaced by a medium security complex built next to the West Tennessee High Security Facility (WTHSF). The two complexes and the CCCF minimum security annex were operationally combined and became the WTSP.[4]
