Courthouse Museum
The Courthouse was built in 1830, and the museum is housed in it's former Quarter Sessions which were ceased in 1953, but continued to be
a Magistrates Court until it closed in 1998.
Experience what it was like to be sentenced to be transported thousands of miles away, where survival was not guaranteed.
The Courthouse museum displays books of Justices' manuals and guides from the 18th and 19th Centuries, portraits of past magistrates, and an
audio visual presentation that gives examples of actual cases.
