Abstract:
In June 2013 AS Ltd. undertook historic building recording of the old court house in Barnet. The recording forms the initial part of a programme of archaeological work including trial trench evaluation which will be the subject of a forthcoming report. The court house is unusual being constructed in 1916, at a time when little building work was carried out due to wartime material shortages and the limited availability of a workforce. Stylistically it is typical of the period and anticipates the neo-Georgian style of construction which became prevalent in the 1920s. It is well-constructed with consistent and robust detailing common to institutional buildings which drew upon a standard repertoire of materials and styles. The original layout of the building survives largely intact and reflects the judicial process with the private and public separated by the central hub of the principal court room, itself laid out in theatrical British court style. Alteration is evident in several areas consistent with the need to upgrade facilities and to keep pace with changing institutional standards, but in general remains a well preserved example of an early 20th century institutional building.
