Trinity Road Police Station
Trinity Road Police Station is the headquarters of the "Trinity Sector", or just "Trinity", of the Avon and Somerset Constabulary in Old Market area of Lawrence Hill, Bristol.
It was formed out of two previous sectors: Ashley Sector (St Pauls, Montpelier, Kingsdown, Cotham & Eastville) and Lawrence Hill/Easton Sector (Lawrence Hill, Easton, St Phillips, Redfield, Whitehall, Barton Hill, St Judes, Eastville & Redcliffe).
It was announced in April 2014 that the station is to be closed. In 2019 Avon and Somerset Constabulary stated they only needed 10% of its space, and intend to sell the building in 2019, but do not intend to leave the site entirely.
