Bow street magistrates’ court is to close after 271 years. It is to be sold to a property develop who is believed to be turning it into a hotel.
There has been a magistrates court in Bow Street since the court system came into being. Some famous people have been in the dock of court 1. Oscar Wilde was sentenced to 2 years hard labour for ‘indecent acts’. William Joyce (Lord Haw Haw) started his road to the gallows via this famous court house.
Nelsons column .......
Restorers have finished work on Nelsons Column after four months. What did they find? The column in Trafalgar Square is 16 feet shorter, instead of being 185feet as was thought it is only 169feet 51 inches.
And I think this the last on the subject of Zinedine Zidane...
