The Consistory CourtBY SPECIAL REQUEST
The Consistory Court is truly distinctive - it is
the only old church court in the country.
The woodwork dates from the late 16th century
and was moved to its present location in 1636.
The court dealt with the legal work of the
diocese, including passing judgement on
the people who failed to attend church or
misbehaved during services.
A rare space for an unusual event.
