Only this morning did I come to know that the house two doors from our present residence was once upon a time a police station. I've walked past that house a thousand times over the last year and always found it a bit fascinating in comparison to the others in the street but it never occurred to me that it has this bit of historical significance. The house even today has an emblem of the queen, the crown, on its walls
The houses behind the same were once the courthouse.
The house where Brian and Pat live was of one who owned many horses. His stable was behind his house - part of which is still intact! And all around was grass cultivated for the horses. Including the plot where we presently live. As years went by, he sold bits and pieces off and that's when the police station was built adjacent to it. To its left is the house which now belongs to our immediate neighbours.
