Newcastle Crown Court

Newcastle Crown Court has seen many notorious crimes tried within its walls in the last 15 years, and Newcastle Crown Court listings are published daily. Built on Newcastle Quayside in 1998 out of Scottish Corsehill sandstone, Newcastle Crown Court was designed by architect firm Napper Collerton and formed part of the Quayside regeneration. Newcastle’s Moot Hall previously heard all cases before Newcastle Crown Court was built.
