Hindley Police Station, Lancashire

The former Hindley police station

Was the Hindley Police Station on Castle Hill road haunted by a Victorian Policman?

Although now closed the old Police Station on Castle Hill road, was reported as being haunting by a gentleman dressed in a black cape, it is said that a a visitor asked to leave this police station after spotting a ghostly male figure in walking along a corridor.

A police officer, who was the only other person in the building at the time, who questioned the visitor about the sighting, and confessed to the fact that other police offers and for those staying within the cells had reported feeling ‘uncomfortable’ in the very same area.

Loves a good ghost story, especially whilst sat in front of an open log fire on a cold and dark winters night.

    I live in Hindley, the police station has never been a private residence, it is currently a dental technician business.

    Is the building still standing, and if it is, do you know what it is now?
