The Bristol Crown Court is a Crown Court venue in Bristol, England. It is located at the Law Courts in Small Street. The present Crown Court, which opened in December 1993, is on the site of Bristol's former main Post Office.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://bristololdcity.co.uk/where-to-go/bristol-crown-court-small-street )〕 It was built between 1989 and 1993, retaining the overall style of the Post Office building. Currently it has ten courtrooms. It also has custodial facilities, and separate dining facilities for staff, judges, and advocates, as well as a public coffee shop. Across the road is the former Crown Court building, which is known as the Bristol Guildhall, and was built in the 1840s by Richard Shackleton Pope. The assize courts were attached to the rear of the Guildhall between 1867-70, by Richard Shackleton Pope and J Bindon. It is a Grade II * listed building. It is now an art gallery. An example of a case heard at this court was the animal rights activist Barry Horne, who was convicted of six charges of arson and attempted arson at Bristol Crown Court in December 1997. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bristol Crown Court」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
