An old police station is set to be used as a commercial building after the property was extended this year.

The Hazlemere Neighbourhood Team relocated to the Princes Risborough police station in 2018, with the station on Penn Road closing in a bid to save money.

Many believed that it would be used for housing but after a sign appeared outsite the building this doesn’t seem to be the case.

A spokesman for the building said: “We are actively searching for a Tenant or Tenants. 

“It will be a commercial building as the local planning department are adamant that it remains so and that is also our intention.   

“The planning process did result in lengthy delays and also the pandemic has slowed progress”.

The sign describes the building as a “fully compliant commercial premises with lift to upper floors”.

It says that the building could be used for either shops, financial and professional services, restaurants and cafes, business, storage and distribution or non-residential institution's.
