Description
This is a standard Edinburgh police box designed by the City Architects Department, likely in the late 1930s. It is a classical rectangular cast-iron structure measuring 6 feet by 4 feet. The long sides have two bays with pilasters, and one side features a door. The short ends each have a single bay topped with open pediments that display ribboned wreath decorations. All sides are adorned with saltire patterned glazing. The roof previously supported a UKWMO siren.
