Background

History

The first incarnation of the building was completed in 1940 and was estimated to have cost £27,570 to build. The two courtrooms were initially used for Quarter Sessions before the Courts Act 1972 created the Crown Courts of England and Wales. The court closed in 2017 before re-opening after the COVID-19 pandemic, to deal with the case backlog, as a satellite court of Lewes Combined Court. Today, the court hears criminal cases that are tried by jury. The Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger also appeared there in 1967 on drugs charges.
