Martin Angove's Utterly Pointless tour of the Aber Valley

The Police House

The Police station on Station Road.

I like this building, for some reason. The date on it is 1904, which is a few years after the village was founded, and the mine was still expanding following the first explosion in 1901. I wonder, did villages just 'get' a police station when they got to a certain size, or was there a reason for it?
