The Old County Court on Bayley Lane in Coventry is rich in history.
It was built in 1783 serving as the County Court.
A time when Coventry was recognized as a county in its own right!
The building is situated in Coventry’s historic Cathedral quarter, adjacent to the city’s grand 18th Century County Hall.
Bayley Lane itself has been around since early medieval times and was once next to the castle.
The area is steeped in history, with the Old County Court building being a significant part of it.
Today, this building, with its quirky exterior, is a reminder of Coventry’s past and serves as a unique place to stay for visitors.
For a period, it was the former Prison Governor’s house, and now it has been repurposed while still retaining its historical charm.
The street and the surrounding area, including the nearby St. Mary’s Guildhall and the remains of Coventry’s old cathedral, provide a glimpse into the city’s medieval past and its development over the centuries
