Loreburn Police Station

A rare opportunity to explore part of Loreburn Street Police Station where Officers will be on hand to answer questions and introduce visitors to a huge range of their activities.

Built in 1938 by Dumfriesshire County Council, Loreburn Street serves as the main Police Station for Nithsdale.

Spend some time in the cells, take your chances in an ID parade, get your hands on a Traffic car and view the range of equipment required for Officers to do their job. There will be exhibitions on the Safety Camera Partnership, Firearms, Public Order, Scenes of Crime, Road Safety and much more so take the opportunity to learn about your local Police Force and their incredible efforts to protect the public of Dumfries and Galloway.

There are long stay car parks on the Whitesands and at Brooms Road Car Park and otherwise town centre parking operates a disc system.

From all directions follow signs for Dumfries Town Centre. From the east follow the Edinburgh Road to Dumfries Academy where Loreburn Street is the one way street on the left. From the west cross the river onto Buccleuch Street, go round the Church and take the right at the traffic lights onto Loreburn Street. The station is at the top of the hill on the left.
