Northern Range - Court of King's Bench, 1823-29 (207)

Historical Note:-
Along with the Courts of Common Pleas and Exchequer, this was one of the three High Courts of the Common Law; a status demonstrated by its convention of sitting in Westminster Hall. Its location at the south-east corner on the dais demonstrated this Court’s emergence from the administration of the royal household; the Curia Regis. It dealt with matters which had direct bearing upon royal prerogatives and interests. It could also hear appeals from the Court of Common Pleas. As a result of the Supreme Court of Judicature Acts (1873-75) this Court’s functions were merged with the other superior courts to form the High Court of Justice.
