ROYAL COURTS of JUSTICE (London) - official review, with video
LOCATION. Nearest station: Temple.
As you exit the station, walk north into Arundel Street. Go till its very end and turn right into the Strand.
In a minute you’d have walked past St. Clement Danes’ Church and the Royal Courts of Justice would be on the other side.
OPEN HOUSE. While you can come another day for the court cases, the annual Open House weekend (September) offers something more fun – court case re-enactments, much like what we’ve seen in Nottingham’s National Justice Museum.
You also get to play one of the characters if you wish, the witnesses, judge, defendant, jury members etc.
In the rest of your time there’s no direction whatsoever as to what to do. Unlike the stringent government departments we’ve visited, here the courts have more of a pigeon-let-free policy.
Imagine roaming free and through any door unlocked.
Do check out the mini exhibitions on the first floor.
Messenger me for free advice on traveling plans.
Time is asset: save it for better with 25-min museum tours. Or find yourself in my novel, check out the photo of the day and finish it off with a secret prize.
