Description
The building is a police station constructed around 1840. It is made of brick with ashlar dressings and features a hipped slate roof. The design is a double-depth plan, with two storeys and a basement, presenting a symmetrical three-window facade. The basement includes half arches that spring from a retaining wall, topped with a platt band. There is a sill band on the first floor, along with a top frieze and modillioned eaves. The windows have plain surrounds, with two-light single-chamfered-mullioned windows in the basement, 20th-century casements on the ground floor, and 12-pane sashes on the first floor. The entrance is adorned with flat pilasters, an entablature, and a blocking course that features the inscription "POLICE" on the frieze, along with an overlight and a four-panel door. The returns of the building are similar, with the right return having a recessed rear wing. The interior has not been inspected.
