The Old Police Station on High Street in St Mary Cray, dating from 1896. It ceased to have its original role in around 1980, when its functions transferred to Orpington, and after a variety of uses it has now been converted to flats, going under the name Warwick House. It is locally listed. The building on the right of the photo, Durley House, dates from the 18th century and is grade II listed - see www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1359328. In the background are Horton and Alkham Towers, dating from 1968. In 2012, after this photo was taken, both towers were demolished - see Image
