The Eastern Shore Regional is a detention center located at 5245 Hornes St Eastville, VA which is operated locally by the Northampton County Sheriff's Office and holds inmates awaiting trial or sentencing or both. Most of the sentenced inmates are here for less than two years. Northampton County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, Eastville Police Department, and the US Marshal's Service.

New detainees arrive at the jail regularly, with some being released on bail, placed under pretrial services caseloads, supervised by probation agencies, or released on recognizance with a court appearance agreement. Those who are not released await their court appearances at the jail, receiving accommodations including bedding and meals. You can see all the arrest records for Virginia here.

The Eastern Shore Regional Jail is a 248-bed facility that houses minimum to maximum security male and female offenders. The Jail is maintained and operated to safely and securely house pre-trial, pre-sentenced and sentenced inmates primarily from both Northampton and Accomack Counties. In addition to housing local inmates, the jail may accept inmates from other jurisdictions.

In May 2007, the 85,500 square foot facility was opened to replace the 93-year-old, 30 bed Northampton County Jail. The state-of-the-art facility was built to meet the current and future correctional needs of the Eastern Shore. All areas of the main interior and exterior are monitored by security cameras and the control rooms are equipped to control everything in the housing units from doors, lights and cameras to telephones and televisions. The jail has its own full-service Kitchen, Laundry and Medical departments as well as Administrative Offices and an on-site Magistrate's Office.
