Bow Street Runners Run Out

Bow Street Magistrates Court, which for the last 271 years has seen in its dock everyone from Casanova to Crippen to Oscar Wilde to Lord Haw Haw along with an army of pickpockets and beggars is closing after being sold to an Irish developer.

So much history, so many £5 fines.
