Forensic Centre Opens at Harperley Hall

Sunday, 11th May, 2008

The National Policing Improvement Agency's new Forensic Centre at Harperley Hall was officially opened last month with Bishop FM and the Weardale Gazette as exclusive reporters on proceedings. The Home Office has invested a lot of money in the new building that has been hailed as one of the most progressive in the world.

Harperley Hall, built in 1858, is set in acres of beautiful countryside at Fir tree, just outside the market town of Bishop Auckland. It was the seat of the Wilkinson family, until it was gifted to the police authority that then used it as a national training centre.
