Old Shire Hall, Courts and Dungeon Tour

This tour covers over 300 years of trials, judgements and imprisonments. See the civil and criminal courts, holding cells and the 17th century dungeon. Hear how justice was handed down in the past.

The tour starts outside the main doors of Old Shire Hall on Northgate St, at 10am. Please aim to arrive promptly at 9.50am. The group will proceed to the lower floors so late arrivals cannot be accommodated.
