What is recorded here

This blue commemorative plaque records: The Old Police Station. In 1848 County Terrace was erected "for the occupation of the warders and discipline officers" of Knutsford Gaol, which stood behind the Law Courts on Toft Road. This house served as a police station. Its cell block, now converted to domestic accommodation, survives in the yard. Recorded plaque organisation: Knutsford Town Council.
