Informations supplémentaires

This is the only remaining Police Box in Sheffield and is still in use. The boxes were introduced in 1928 with each having a direct telephone line to the central police station which could be used by the public. The boxes were also visited hourly by officers on their beat when they could pass on information to the police station. As well as providing a shelter for officers on meal breaks or writing reports, the boxes were also sometimes used as a temporary lock-up. They were phased out following improvements in communications in the 1960s.
