Fair Cop is an impressive Victorian-built old police station and courthouse right off the centre of Hawkshead hamlet; add in a creative architect to rebuild the structure; and add in a local craftsman builder to complete the inventive renovations, and you have something truly unique.
This fascinating cottage was created using the original police cells from its rich history.
