Police Station

The Police Station on Ladywell Road was built in 1899 and is a two-storey building with an attic, featuring six irregularly placed windows. It has a high-pitched tiled roof with very tall, stone-corbelled brick chimneys and a long, flat dormer. The building is constructed of red brick with stone window dressings and bands.

To the left, there is an angle tower with a stone-coped, battlemented parapet and three first-floor windows that have stone tympana beneath round brick relieving arches. The ground floor windows are similar, with the two middle ones featuring a keystone at the first-floor cill string. A stone-coped plinth extends up to the ground floor cills. The first-floor windows have segment heads and are set in chamfered reveals.

On the right, a gabled, projecting section includes a tall slit window at the peak. The windows on both the first and ground floors are round bows with a cornice and blocking course. There is a stone porch at the angle of the building, which has a battlemented parapet and a hollow-chamfered elliptical entrance arch.
