Sheffield Fire and Police Museum

Sheffield Fire and Police Museum is a museum in Sheffield, England. Established in 1984, it is based at a former fire station (opened c.1900) at the junction of West Bar and Tenter Street near the city centre. A notable feature is the only remaining Fire Brigade observation tower in the UK.[1]

The collection covers law and order, and social history. The museum is run entirely by volunteers, and is open on Sundays, Bank Holidays and for special events or pre-arranged visits.[1]

It also has a number of paintings, including one by Sheffield artist Joe Scarborough.[2]
