Abstract: |
An historic building record of a prison cell annexe to the rear of 4 Highland Street was prepared prior to and during conversion to accommodation. The cell annexe was constructed in the late 19th century (by 1880) after no. 4 Highland Street was leased for use as the Ivybridge police station. The property was leased for this use until 1926 at which point the cell annexe became redundant. It is a small stone building which contained two cells and an access corridor. Several historic fittings were recorded prior to their removal including the windows and opening mechanisms, window security bars, the rudimentary sanitary facilities and the door to the chimney raking out chute. One of the cell doors was also present. |
