Aylesbury Crown Court, Crown court and Grade II* listed building in Market Square, Aylesbury, England
The courthouse exhibits a symmetrical main frontage with seven bays facing Market Square, featuring a central projection with an ornate doorway and round-headed windows.
Construction of the courthouse began in 1722 under architect Thomas Harris, following a competition overseen by John Vanbrugh, with completion occurring in 1740.
The courthouse handled significant legal cases, including the 1913 trial of suffragette Elizabeth Anne Bell, who was charged with carrying a loaded pistol near Holloway Prison.
The court operates from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM on weekdays, providing video conferencing facilities, interpreter services, and disability accommodations for visitors and participants.
In 1845, the courthouse witnessed the trial of John Tawell, marking an early instance where telegraph communication aided law enforcement in capturing a criminal.
