Stafford Combined Court Centre, Crown and County Court in Victoria Square, Stafford, England
Stafford Combined Court Centre is a courthouse in Victoria Square comprising a two-story section along Earl Street and a three-story entrance block constructed from red brick with stone detailing. The building houses seven courtrooms used for both criminal and civil proceedings.
The court facility opened in 1991 on the site of a former cattle market, replacing criminal court operations previously held at the Shire Hall. This new building represented a modernization of judicial operations in Stafford.
The building displays the Royal coat of arms on its northwest wall, reflecting British judicial tradition. The distinctive full-height curved windows are a visual reminder of the building's important role in the community.
The centre operates Monday through Friday and visitors should expect formal security procedures at the entrance. Arriving early and dressing appropriately are recommended, as access to courtrooms may have additional restrictions.
The facility uses video conferencing and electronic evidence presentation systems that allow legal proceedings to be conducted remotely across multiple jurisdictions. These technologies enable modern case management without requiring all parties to be physically present.
