Former Harbour Offices and Police Station, Newhaven

This block was built by Sealink to provide offices for its staff. The square building at the front with the door was the offices of the British Transport Police. The window to the left of the door was the Sergeants Office and the window on the right was the main office with a 24 hour Police presence. BTP officers would have to issue permits to lorry drivers travelling to Dieppe. The BTP stopped policing the harbour in 1986 and the offices are empty.
