A photo grabbed because it shows a useful (to modellers) building, that I suspect won't be around much longer. According to the sale document, it will be replaced with "20 supported units" and space for Police car parking. The facade will stay, although if it will change (surely the right hand side will need windows adding) it's not possible to say yet. One local paper suggests it will simple be demolished, so I've no idea what will happen.
Built in the 1960s, on the site of some cottages, it's a typical, for the era, clean-lined building. The size would be ideal for the larger layout, even though it's actually quite a small station. Dating from the days when the fuzz were more local, and the town bobby would give a clip around the ear for scrumping apples, it's at least the right era!
You can see the Police station on Google Streetview.
