Malling House, Grade I listed house in Lewes, England
The red and grey brick structure features nine regular bays, a Tuscan door frame, and a roof made of Horsham slabs over two storeys with attics and cellars.
William Spence, a barrister, initiated the construction of Malling House in 1656 after purchasing the estate from Thomas Lucas, leading to generations of family ownership.
The transformation from a private residence to the Sussex Police headquarters in 1948 reflects the evolving needs of public service infrastructure in East Sussex.
Located on Church Lane, this Grade I listed building now functions as the primary operational center for law enforcement activities in Sussex County.
The property changed ownership through notable figures, including Countess Anne Pelham and Reverend Peter Guerin Crofts, before becoming a police headquarters.
