About Shrewsbury Crown Court

Shrewsbury Crown Court is located at Shrewsbury Justice Centre, Preston Street, Shrewsbury, Shropshire, SY2 5NX. It serves as the principal Crown Court for Shropshire and parts of the Welsh border region, handling serious indictable offences including murder, manslaughter, robbery, serious sexual offences, large-scale drug trafficking, fraud, and grievous bodily harm. Cases are heard before a judge sitting with a jury, and the court also deals with social security and child support tribunal matters.

The building itself was originally constructed in 1994 in a Modernist architectural style, designed as a magistrates' court with four courtrooms. After magistrates' hearings were relocated to Telford Magistrates' Court and the building closed as a magistrates' venue on 31 March 2016, it underwent a £5 million conversion. The Shrewsbury Justice Centre was officially re-opened as a Crown Court by Dame Julia Macur, Senior Presiding Judge for England and Wales, on 12 April 2019. Prior to this, Crown Court hearings in Shrewsbury were held at the Shirehall on Abbey Foregate, where the court had operated since the Courts Act 1971 replaced the former assizes system.

Historical Significance

Shrewsbury Crown Court holds a notable place in British legal history. In 1973, twenty-four building workers — including actor Ricky Tomlinson and trade unionist Des Warren — were tried and convicted at the former Shirehall courthouse on charges of conspiracy to intimidate, unlawful assembly, and affray during the national building workers' strike of 1972. The case, widely known as the "Shrewsbury 24" or "Shrewsbury Pickets" trial, became one of the most controversial labour-relations cases of the 20th century. After decades of campaigning, the Court of Appeal quashed the convictions in March 2021.
