Built circa 1850 as a police and fire station, the large red bricked building is situated on the corner of a busy thoroughfare on the eastern edge of Liverpool city centre and just opposite The Royal Liverpool University Hospital. There is evidence of its original function still visible: a sign "Detective Office" at the foot of the staircase and the row of cells.

In 2007 the building was given a Grade 2 listing.
