Cell 2

Police Uniforms & Equipment

By Jennifer Twemlow

This exhibition involves police uniforms and equipment from 1838, when Brighton Police Station opened, to 1967 when it was amalgamated with other forces to become Sussex Police.

Along with clothing, the collection includes rattles, helmet plates, cap badges, truncheons, lanterns and lamps, whistles, gas masks and a variety of other equipment.

The exhibition is arranged into a timeline to show and explain the changes to the uniform and the technological advances in equipment over time.
