The Police Station & Court House were built in 1896 during the gold mining era which gave rise to the town. Gold mining occurred from 1864 to 1962, with the Lake George gold mine overlooking the town.
The police station/court house complex had a cell block & accommodation for the policeman & his family. These still exist but are no longer used for that purpose.

I have had NO problems with taking photos of Police stations but please respect the fact that some services may be nervous about having their photo taken and inquire as to why... I have found that once things are explained they are more than happy to let me photograph the building, crest, chief... (they are people too!)
