Description
The Court Building, known as St Pancras Coroner's Court, is a rectangular structure built of red brick with stone dressings and tile roofs featuring crestings and elaborate stacks. It dates from the 20th century and has an apsed end. Inside, there is a single main courtroom flanked by ancillary offices to the west and east. The main elevation is a tripartite design that reflects these elements, highlighted by breaks in the roofline, stacks, and buttresses. The central projecting window, resembling a transept, features a three-light window with tracery in the style of around 1400. On either side are two-light windows with pointed mouldings beneath square heads. The high roof is adorned with triangular gables and finials.
The interior showcases an open timber-lined roof supported by wrought-iron trusses and ashlaring. Boarded doors and bench seating create a well-preserved ensemble. The building exhibits a Gothic character that is fitting for its historic location next to St Pancras Burial Ground.
It is noted that the 20th-century addition to the northeast, which serves as the entrance to the court, is not considered to have special architectural or historic interest.
