Droylsden’s former police could be turned into one-bedroom flats under new plans. An application has been lodged with Tameside council to convert the building on Manchester Road.
The red-brick building, which bears the name ‘County Constabulary-Station’ across the frontage, went up for auction in 2021. A guide price of £125,000 to £150,000 was set for the period police station, which covers more than 1,500 sq ft over two floors.
It is not in active use by Greater Manchester Police, with the enquiry desk in the police station closing more than ten years ago. The applicant, B&A Properties Ltd, wants to turn the building into five flats, which would all be one-bedroom.
