Historically Royston was half in Hertfordshire and half in Cambridgeshire hence the two (now redundant) police stations...

OK, where's the second one? I know of the old one on the one way system that used to have a court beside it but not of a another old one.

Or do you mean the current one that always appears to be closed everytime I drive past it?

The old Hertfordshire one is on the one way system by the Green Man the former Cambridgeshire one is on Kneesworth Street by 'The Green'. Maybe should stop my useless Royston trivia now

As you say the current one always appears to be closed!!!

Royston must be a VRS hotspot... maybe time for a mini-meet
