Hampshire Police's unused headquarters to be sold off

Hampshire Constabulary has confirmed it is to sell a building once earmarked for its future headquarters after nearly five years of it standing empty.

Alpha Park near Eastleigh was bought for £9.6m in 2008. A further £1.8m has since been spent on the building.

Hampshire and Isle of Wight Police and Crime Commissioner Simon Hayes confirmed Alpha Park would be sold, together with the current headquarters and the force would move to a smaller site in Winchester.
