London police station reopens to public as a museum

One of London’s oldest police stations is opening its cells to the public as it reinvents itself as a museum. Bow Street Police Museum, which welcomes visitors from Friday, will tell the story of the Bow Street Runners, often regarded as the capital’s first professional police force. The station and attached courthouse opened in Covent Garden in 1881 and the station closed in 1992. The Kray twins (Cristian Barnett/Bow Street Police Museum/PA) The museum will shine a light on investigations, arrests and famous cases from across that period. Among the collection are the original dock from court number two, early equipment used by the Bow Street Runners including a cutlass and a replica Runners uniform featuring the red waistcoat that earned officers the nickname “robin red breasts”.

Not like I remember it : Bow Street police station reopens as museum | Police

Last modified on Thu 27 May 2021 14.32 EDT It is the stench that Lee-Jane Yates remembers vividly. âIt was so rancid,â she said. But then it was from a small cell that sometimes housed a double-figure number of men, held there overnight after being arrested for drunken behaviour. Today the cell, nicknamed âthe tankâ, is clean, odour-free and ready to welcome visitors to the UKâs newest independent museum, one telling the story of Bow Street police station and magistrates court in London. Yates was a rookie WPC stationed at Bow Street in the early 1980s. âThe tank is very different from how I remember it,â she said. âIt had its own unique odour and as you walked closer it became even more rancid. I think they got as many people in there as they could.â
