Central Police Station
Swansea, Glamorgan

Photography by John Ball - 19 June 1998
(with Agfa ePhoto307 digital camera)

Swansea's police headquarters is [in 1998]
located in this old building in the centre of
the city. Policing the Swansea area is the responsibility of 'H' Division,
South Wales Police.
