The oldest structure within the compound is a barrack block built in 1864.
It is a three-storey building constructed adjacent to Victoria Prison. A storey
was later added to the block in 1905. In 1919, Headquarters Block facing Hollywood
Road was constructed. Subsequently in 1925, the two-storey Stable Block was
constructed at the north-west end of the parade ground and later used as an
armoury.The Police Station together with the former Central Magistracy and Victoria
Prison form a group of historical architecture representing law and order in
Hong Kong.
