Bristol Crown Court

Bristol Crown Court (the stone building on the right)

The Bristol Crown Court is a Crown Court venue in Bristol, England. It is located at the Law Courts in Small Street.

Until 1993 the Crown Court met in the Guildhall, on the opposite side of the road.[1]

The new Crown Court, which has ten courtrooms, was created by converting the old Post office between 1989 and December 1993.[2]

Archives

Records of the Bristol Courts of Assizes and the Quarter Sessions, which preceded the Crown Court, are held at Bristol Archives (Ref. JQS) (online catalogue). Bristol Crown Court records from 1972 onwards are held at the National Archives UK.[3]
