Description

The Station Surgery, originally a police station, was built in 1894. It features squared rubblestone brought to course and a Welsh slate roof. The building is two stories high and has three bays, designed in a Gothic style.

The front facing Station Road has a central bay that is gabled and projects forward, while the right bay is also gabled but set back. The left bay contains an elliptical-arched quoined doorway with a moulded surround and cornice. Above this doorway is a plaque in a quoined chamfered surround that reads 'Police Station 1894'. The central bay has a four-light window with a three-light window above it, both set in quoined moulded surrounds with dripmoulds. The right bay is partially obscured by a single-storey 20th-century addition, which, while in keeping, disrupts the balance of the facade. On the first floor, there is a three-light window similar to those on the ground floor. The building features moulded copings and corniced stacks to the right of the ridges of the gabled bays.

At the rear, which faces Victoria Road, the right bay is again gabled. There is a central gabled porch with a door similar to the front, under a hoodmould, and it has a coped gable with ball finials and a small window on each return. The windows at the rear, like those at the front, consist of two, three, and four lights. The left bays have a chamfered eaves band, while the right bay has moulded coping and a stack in its right roof pitch.
