Closure of Langley Mill Police Station
replied on: 8/17/2006 2:29:35 PM Correction Ref. Old Telephone Exchange, Station Road, Langley Mill. I have the above address as 144 and 146 Station Road, Langley Mill. The one that I purchased was 146 the left hand dwelling of the two and I believe still numbered so. If this is so, then the newspaper report or details since seem to be incorrect? Sorry to confuse....Colin |

replied on: 8/17/2006 6:35:24 PM Hi Colin, I will send a copy of the newspaper report to Robert, but the numbers are 142 and 144 Station Rd on the report, but we have found thing before that are not quite right! And sometimes it will be me and not the papers. Jenny |

replied on: 8/18/2006 9:05:16 AM Jenny, Almost certain that house numbers on Station Road have been changed, I remember the telephone exchange being in those house's. I have an address for Nellie Outram's Milliner's at No.80 Station Road in 1924 which was then almost opposite the entrance to which is now Netto's. The telephone exchange was in the houses to the right going towards Milnhay Road. If the numbers 142 - 144 are correct it suggests that they were numbered to the right, but Colin purchased No.146 which he says was to the left. Therefore it seems to indicate the houses have been re - numbered in the opposite direction. Paul.R |

Heanor Observer 10th Jan 1957 New telephone exchange opened yesterday at Langley Mill (There was a full report but to big to copy today) Heanor Observer 5th Sept 1957 Sale of Police Station A letter from the area-planning officer asked for the Council observations on the proposed sale of the Langley Mill Police Station for residential purposes and it was decided the council raise no objections. 19th Sept 1957 Lot 1 With vacant possession.

replied on: 10/30/2006 9:50:23 PM Just to add to the numbers confusion: Directly opposite the old Police station the block of 4 houses was originally nos 13a to d with what is now 47 being 13d. They were built in the 1920s I think and my dad says they were slipped in between the original numbers. Then by the 2nd WW they had changed to nos 25 a to d 25d being no 47 and by 1955 whenI was born the current numbering was in place but was probably recent. My Grandparents lived at no 47. |
