Abstract: |
In April 2008 Archaeological Solutions carried out a programme of historic building recording at the Old Police Station, 1 Queen's Road, Hertford, Hertfordshire. The purpose of the work was to investigate and clarify the origins and development of the existing building prior to proposed extension and alteration of the building. Furthermore, the programme aimed systematically to record the building in its existing state before work began. The investigatory work concluded that the building was principally of one phase dating from 1881 with a small extension dating from shortly after 1923. Site investigation noted several features of particular interest which relate to the building's original function, most notably a secure cast iron gate and metal sheeted doors. External architectural features of note were also observed including high quality carved brick and sandstone mouldings and a finely laid Portland stone door case. All of these details were photographed along with each room and all accessible external views. In addition, existing drawings were checked for accuracy and amended where necessary. |
