Crossfields by Cannock Road near Stafford
This substantial property, photographed in 2015, dates from the early 1880s. For forty years it was used as offices for the nearby (already demolished in 2013) former police headquarters on the opposite side of the road.
In 2021 an application was made to demolish it and build a 76 bed care home. https://planning.org.uk/app/151/QZ0SJAPSLLK00/ https://www.expressandstar.com/news/local-hubs/staffordshire/stafford/2022/01/25/former-police-authority-offices-could-make-way-for-76-bed-care-home/

Police Headquarters sign by Cannock Road in Stafford
The buildings were demolished in 2013 but although the site was open as temporary parkland for a few years, this sign and a tall communications mast remained. As I write in 2023, the area is covered with new housing in imaginatively named streets like Sergeant Way and Constable Close. They missed out on having a row of Copper Cottages, but Stafford residents can't have everything!
