SCOTLAND YARD
Scotland Yard is a popular name for the headquarters of London’s Metropolitan Police Force, and especially its Criminal Investigation Department (CID). The name is derived from a small area where the headquarters was situated from 1829 to 1890. The area, in turn, was named after the residence of Scottish kings in London. The custom of referring to the headquarters as a police station began soon after the police was reorganised by the British statesman Sir Robert Peel in 1829. The headquarters was moved in 1890 to new buildings erected on the Thames Embankment, which were known as ‘New Scotland Yard’. In 1967 the present headquarters, a mordern 20-storey building situated near the Houses of Parliament, was opened.
