Monmouth Police Station

In 1895, the Monmouthshire County Council purchased a building in Glendower Street, and redeveloped it as a police station.

[1] Kelly's Directory of Monmouthshire indicates that, in 1901, the Monmouth Police Station on Glendower Street was staffed by Captain Vincent E. Parker, "Superintendent of the Borough County Constabulary," as well as two sergeants and seven constables.

[10] Glendower Street, the site of the Monmouth Police Station since 1895, has been partially renumbered since the early 20th century.

[6] Decades later, at the time of the heritage listings, at least a portion of the police building was recorded at 17 Glendower Street.

[13] The fencing and gate behind 17 Glendower Street, also part of the station, are adjacent to those of the Henry Burton Court residences and are positioned in front of Chippenham Park.

[17] On 31 May 2012, the Gwent Police announced that the next Monmouth Off Street Project (MOSP) event had been scheduled for 24 June 2012.

When queried, local children had noted the lack of youth facilities in the Monmouth area and had suggested a new skate park.

The MOSP team meets regularly and plans fundraising activities to finance the skate park, with the event scheduled for June 2012 a zip line in Chepstow.

[18] On 13 March 2012, the BBC News reported that as of July of that year, seventeen police stations in South East Wales would close to the public, with only five still offering front desk service.
