Hereford Magistrates' Court operates from the Hereford Justice Centre on Bath Street in the heart of Hereford city centre, serving the residents and communities of Herefordshire. As the principal magistrates' court for the county, it handles a wide range of summary criminal offences, single justice procedure cases, and benefits-related tribunal hearings. The court also processes cases involving motoring offences, minor assaults, public order matters, theft, and early-stage indictable offences before they are committed to the Crown Court. Managed by HM Courts & Tribunals Service (HMCTS), Hereford Magistrates' Court plays a vital role in maintaining access to justice across this largely rural county.

Hereford has a long association with the administration of local justice. The original Magistrates' Court building on Gaol Street, dating from around 1842 and designed by local architects Trehern and Duckham, is a Grade II listed building recognised by Historic England. Originally built as a police station and gaol, the stone and brick structure features a distinctive hipped gabled slate roof, semicircular arched windows, and rusticated stonework — a fine example of early Victorian civic architecture. Magistrates' courts in Herefordshire have evolved significantly over the centuries, from the petty sessions courts of earlier eras to the modern facility now housed within the Hereford Justice Centre. Today, the Justice Centre consolidates magistrates', county, and family court functions under one roof, streamlining access to legal services for people across the county.
