Description
The police station in Rosneath Village, designed by Joseph Weekes in 1937, is a single-storey building in an L-plan layout, showcasing the Arts and Crafts and Baronial architectural styles. It features white-painted harl with a base course and raised cills, along with slightly projecting eaves.
On the northeast elevation, there is a squat, round tower entrance located in the re-entrant angle. This entrance has a narrow door with an upper part consisting of six panes, topped by a bell-cast slate roof and a terracotta finial. To the right of the entrance, the jamb is advanced, and there are two large windows symmetrically positioned, with a narrow window to the left of the entrance.
The building includes 16-pane and 2-pane over 4-pane sash and case windows, and it is capped with a grey slate piended roof featuring lead ridge tiles.
