This impressive building stands on the corner at the junction of Burton Constable Road with the B1238 road to Albrough. It was built in 1849 to serve as a police station and magistrates' room for the Middle Division of Holderness. The police station was discontinued circa 1970 and the magistrates last met at Sproatley in 1995.
