Ipoh Police Headquarters

Ipoh Police Headquarters (GPS: 4.59496, 101.07462) occupies a major section of the city between Jalan Panglima Bukit Gantang (Club Road) and Jalan Sultan Yusuf. It is bordered by Jalan Sultan Iskandar (Hugh Low Street) to the north and Jalan Koo Chong Kong (Hill Street) to the south.

The Ipoh police force dates back to its establishment in 1879. The earliest police barracks were erected in the 1890's, but the oldest buildings existing today within the Ipoh Police Headquarters date from 1911, following the relocation of the Perak Police headquarters from Taiping to Ipoh two years earlier. These early police buildings, designed by architect C.M. LaBrooy, were some of the earliest public buildings to be built in Ipoh.
