The Supreme Court of the United Kingdom is the highest court in the land for all civil and criminal cases in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, and for civil cases in Scotland. Established in 2009 under the Constitutional Reform Act 2005, it replaced the Appellate Committee of the House of Lords as the UK's final court of appeal. The court is housed in the magnificent Middlesex Guildhall on Parliament Square, Westminster — a stunning Grade II* listed Edwardian Baroque building directly opposite the Houses of Parliament and Westminster Abbey. The building was sensitively converted and opened as the Supreme Court in 2009, retaining its extraordinary stained glass windows and ornate stonework while incorporating three state-of-the-art courtrooms. The court is open to the public with free admission to observe hearings and visit the courtrooms and exhibitions.
