The Central Criminal Court, also known as the Old Bailey, stands tall in the heart of London, England. This iconic institution has witnessed countless trials and seen justice served for centuries. With its imposing presence and rich history, it is a symbol of law and order in the United Kingdom. At the entrance of this grand courthouse stands a magnificent statue of Lady Justice. Adorned with a sword representing power, scales embodying fairness, and a blindfold signifying impartiality, she serves as a reminder that justice should be blind to all external influences. Inside the Central Criminal Court's hallowed halls, numerous high-profile cases have unfolded throughout time. From infamous poisoning trials like that of William Palmer to gripping examinations such as Henry and Thomas Wainwright's trial - each engraving etched into history captures moments filled with tension and anticipation. Justice Hall within the Old Bailey has been witness to many significant events over its long existence since 1723-4 and has stood strong through fires and reconstructions while upholding its duty to deliver fair judgments. The Trial of the Detectives at the Central Criminal Court remains an unforgettable chapter in legal history. Engravings depict scenes from William Kurr's examination during this groundbreaking case that shook society to its core. As one gazes upon these captivating images captured through engravings or photographs throughout time they can transported back to an era where truth was sought after tirelessly within these walls. The Great City Forgeries trial showcases how even complex cases were meticulously dissected by dedicated individuals seeking justice for those affected by deceitful acts. In another engraving capturing Dr G H Lamson's trial during The Wimbledon Poisoning Case at the Central Criminal Court, we see determination on both sides - prosecution fighting for truth while defense battles against accusations made against their client. Today, visitors can still catch glimpses inside this historic landmark through guided tours or attend public hearings if fortunate enough.
