Firefighters have ruled out arson in the blaze in D Building, which houses the workshop and gym.
Eleven firefighters rushed to the fire at 8.40 p.m. on Friday and found severe heat smoke and damage.
Lietentant Morris White said no inmates were evacuated from the West End prison and arson had been ruled out.
The most probable cause of the fire is thought to be an electrical fault or a cigarette in a trash can.
