Description

Wealdstone Police Station is a police station that originally included a magistrates court and later part of it served as a library, but it is now entirely a police station. It was built between 1908 and 1909 by J Dixon Butler in the Free Tudor style. The building is constructed of red brick with stone dressings and features a mansard roof made of Westmoreland slate, topped with end and central brick and stone capped chimneystacks.

The structure is two storeys high and has seven windows, which retain their leaded lights. The projecting central bay features a curved stone gable with a tall window that has nine mullions and transoms. There is a stone moulded architrave above a flat-arched archway, which is adorned with an elaborate keystone. On either side of this central bay are two recessed bays that include stone balustrading and a modillion eaves cornice. The first floor has double mullioned and transomed casements, while the ground floor has single mullioned and transomed casements. The central stone doorcases have curved pediments supported by elongated console brackets. The right-hand entrance served as the Police Station, while the left-hand entrance was for the Magistrates Court. The end bays feature two-storey five-light bays. Additionally, the cell block accommodation includes one detention room and one cell.
