These pictures are all from the 1990s and feature the police officers you may remember – for the right reasons or the wrong ones – at work doing what they do best.
There are also a few snaps inside Bonny Street station from that era – the old CCTV rooms and cells as well as 1990s patrol cars and officers out and about in the community.
