Old Police Station

Old Police Station and Avenue of Boab Trees

1897 the Old Police Station and Lock up were opened in Fitzroy Crossing. The original building still stands and has been heritage listed. Along the section of Russ Road there was an avenue of boab trees planted by the police; these still stand today, although with a couple missing.
