The town’s police moved into their new £68,000 headquarters leaving behind the converted house on Town Street which had been their base for a number of years. The new building between Broadway and Manor Road, included a radio communications room, administrative offices for a chief inspector, inspector, C.I.D. and women police and special constable departments. Other features included a lecture room – which could also be used for recreational purposes – a mess room, interview room and a general office.
