Former Fire Station
The former Central Police, Fire Station and Magistrate's Court on the corner of Pilgrim Street and Market Street, in Newcastle, was built in 1931- 1933. Built with Portland stone columns, the building was designed by Cackett, Burns Dick & Mackellar.[1] The building is Grade 2 listed. It was the third Police Station to be located on this site since 1840.[2] Northumbria Police moved to their building on Forth Banks in November 2014.[3]
