Description

The Old Police House is a former police house, dating to circa 1840. It is constructed of brick with stone dressings and a slate roof. The building features a plinth, chamfered eaves, and a central ridge stack. The main facade has two storeys and a two-window arrangement, with glazing bar sashes, each having a splayed lintel. To the right of the main facade is a recessed single-bay entrance, with a glazing bar sash window above and an elliptical-headed door recess below. It is included in the listing primarily for its group value.
