The Brunswick County Detention Center now has a rated capacity of 444 inmates, this after a 280 bed, 68,000 square foot expansion that was completed in 2008 by the Bordeaux Construction Company, a well known contractor of secure facilities. Prior to the construction of this facility in 2005, Brunswick County was using a facility that was hastily built in 1971 at the rear of the jail pictured below, built in 1904, and is now a tourist attraction.
The Brunswick County Detention Center is a part of the Sheriff John C. Davis Law Enforcement Center, which also houses the Sheriff's Department for Brunswick County.
