That proposal of utilising the Fire Station was turned down. The Fire Station has seen a lot of damage over the years to subsidence, which also affected the houses in Grange Lane, tons of concrete had to injected under those houses to stabalise the foundations.
Part of the boundry wall in Grange Lane also had to be rebuilt.

But where could they build a new cop shop in a centralise location in Acc. There was all that land off Nuttall St, in the Lincoln St area where a new Fire Station was first proposed, till some do gooders blocked it.

Retlaw.
