Ashford Police Training Centre, Police training facility in Kennington, Kent, United Kingdom
The Ashford Police Training Centre occupies the grounds of the former Grosvenor Hall, featuring specialized classrooms and outdoor training areas for law enforcement education.
Originally built in 1875 as Bockhanger Hall, the site transformed from a tuberculosis sanatorium to a police training center in 1973 under Home Office supervision.
The training center established standards for police education in Southeast England, integrating regional forces into a centralized professional development program.
The facility contained dormitories, tactical training zones, and simulation environments designed to prepare officers for various law enforcement scenarios until 2006.
The center served as the main training hub for multiple police forces across England and Wales before transitioning to non-residential training methods.
