“Policing Plymouth 1892-1929” exhibition has concluded.

The Museum of Policing in Devon & Cornwall has concluded its hugely successful “Policing Plymouth 1892 to 1929″ exhibition.

Visitors had an opportunity to meet two of the most innovative Chief Constables of Plymouth during times of great change – Joseph Davidson Sowerby, and Herbert Hards Sanders.

Both were inspirational leaders and tireless campaigners for a safer Plymouth, as well as the maintenance of law and order. With the advent of the motor car, the harsh reality of wartime and grinding poverty, there was much to do on their watches.

The Museum team plan to take the exhibition on the road around the region. Organisations interesting in collaborating, please contact info@dcpolicingmuseum.co.uk
