The Island (formally Bridewell Police Station) was built in 1928 by Ivor Jones and Percy Thomas and opened as a police station in November 1930 near the site of a previous station, it is thought houses of correction or workhouse have existed in this area since the middle ages. It closed as a working police station in August 2005. In 2008 the building was taken on by artists and converted into an arts centre.
