New Scotland Yard
A photograph of New Scotland Yard dating from the mid 1890s. The Yard stood alone like this for ten years before the need for an extension arose and Scotland House was built between 1902-1906. A bridge over what was then Derby Street was built to connect the Yard and Scotland House. In addition Cannon Row Police Station was built adjacent to the Scotland House site between 1900-1902. The Yard and Scotland House were converted into Parliamentary offices from 1973 until 1979, Cannon Row followed suit in the 1990s.
