Photograph Notes: The former police station at The Avenue. The building, formerly Beechwood, was built for Robert Loosemoore, a Tiverton solicitor, in the early 1880s, and it was one of the first houses, if not the first, to be built in The Avenue. Its distinctive features include elaborate decorated stonework, a fine porch, interesting terracotta roof pediments, and attractive bay windows. Because of damage from dry rot the upper part of the atrium (skylight) was removed before 2018, while the fine railings, by Garton and King, were removed during World War II. It is not listed, mainly because of the many changes made to the building while it was a police station, both internally and externally, including the addition of a large annex on the southern side. The building, and the attached annexe, was used as a police station until 2012, and it has deteriorated rapidly since.
