IPSWICH COUNTY COURT MAY 2012

[Brooksy]

My first report comes Ipswich County Court from mon 28th may which i visited with Sorcerer, it was also my first urban exploration and enjoyed it massively. Enjoy!!

County Hall has been included in a national list of buildings at risk compiled by conservation pressure group SAVE.

The white brick and stone castellated building which dominates the town end of St Helens Street is called today 'County Hall'. It contains the law court which once granted the decree nisi in the divorce of the notorious Mrs Wallace Simpson from her first husband, freeing her to marry the future king, after his succession to and abdication from the throne as Edward VIII in 1936. The Suffolk link continued when Mrs Simpson laid low in a house on Undercliff Road, Felixstowe to avoid the media and public outcry surrounding her affair with the future Duke of Windsor, both of them destined for exile in Paris until their deaths.

The Grade II-listed building has been left undeveloped because of difficulties in finding a new use for a building whose interior cannot be altered without special permission.
