I missed this: Bow Street Magistrates Court, the most important magistrates court for England and Wales, heard its last case the other day. Next thing it'll be the Bailey. Or the RCJ...

Not somewhere I ever appeared, or, frankly, was ever likely to appear, but it seems a sad loss. Also, frankly, by and large I find Victorian courtrooms rather better designed than modern ones.
