Abstract: |
The building groups was recorded as part of an application for partial demolition. The earliest buildings on the site date from the period when the site was a farm, namely blocks 12 and 15, though these have been significantly altered to suit more recent requirements. The first police building on site was Block 1 along the Leigh Road frontage in 1924 that appears to have been rapidly extended to the north to add additional office space and a cell block with exercise yard. The majority of the extensions appear to have taken place by 1933. Block 2 accommodation was present by 1933 and it would appear that Block 3 was built only slightly later. These form the main, brick-built buildings on the site with all others added later and in general are pre-fabricated or temporary structures. |
