| 词条 | Armagh Courthouse |
| 释义 |
It deals mainly with magistrates’ court business for the Petty Sessions District of Armagh, including adult and youth criminal and domestic proceedings business. The Courthouse is also used by county court and district judges use the Courthouse for a range of civil business. In 2005 there were 7 members of staff.[2] HistoryThe courthouse was built between 1806 and 1809 and was designed by Francis Johnston, who was also responsible for designing the General Post Office in Dublin.[2] Armagh courthouse underwent complete reconstruction in the mid-1960s and by 1971 plasterwork, staircase, balusters and most of the woodwork had been replaced. Further restorative work was carried out after 3 September 1993 when a 1000 lb bomb exploded directly outside the courthouse causing major structural damage to the roof, façade and walls. The main courtrooms were damaged and in the force of the blast one of the pillars was moved back a full 9 inches. Courtrooms were refurbished and a new 3-storey extension was added to the rear. An extensive programme of reconstruction and enlargement costing £8 million ensued and on 15 January 1999 the courthouse was officially opened by the Lord Chancellor.[3] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.courtsni.gov.uk/en-GB/AboutUs/CourtLocations/p_cl_ct_Armagh.htm |title=Archived copy |accessdate=29 October 2009 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20090618080104/http://www.courtsni.gov.uk/en-GB/AboutUs/CourtLocations/p_cl_ct_Armagh.htm |archivedate=18 June 2009 |df=dmy }} 2. ^1 {{cite web|title=Armagh Courthouse|work=Charter Mark Achievers 2005|url=http://www.dfpni.gov.uk/chartermark-achievers-brochure-info-2005.doc|archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20110929125923/http://www.dfpni.gov.uk/chartermark-achievers-brochure-info-2005.doc | archivedate = 29 September 2011 |accessdate=29 November 2009}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.courtsni.gov.uk/en-GB/AboutUs/Community+Programmes/Heritage/P_ht_Armagh2.htm |accessdate=29 October 2009 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20081120093152/http://www.courtsni.gov.uk/en-GB/AboutUs/Community%2BProgrammes/Heritage/P_ht_Armagh2.htm |title=Armagh Courthouse (Grade A listed building) |publisher=Northern Ireland Court Service |archivedate=20 November 2008 }} External links
