Dunedin Law Courts

The Dunedin Law Courts is a notable historic building in central Dunedin in the South Island of New Zealand. They are located at the corner of Lower Stuart Street and Anzac Square, directly opposite the city's historic railway station.
==Architecture==

The Law Courts building was one of the first major works to be designed by Government architect John Campbell, and was built in 1901–02〔Herd, J. and Griffiths, G.J. (1980) ''Discovering Dunedin.'' Dunedin: John McIndoe. ISBN 0-86868-030-3. p. 70〕 at a cost of £20,000 and opened in April 1902.〔Dunedin's Top 10 Charming Historic Treasures )", www.dunedinnz.com, retrieved 21 August 2014.〕
The Law Courts are located alongside the former Dunedin Central Police Station, another Campbell building, though in a completely different style. While the 1890s police station (which was actually the city's gaol for most of its existence) was deliberately modelled in a Queen Anne style uncommon in New Zealand but designed to imitate London's New Scotland Yard (now the Norman Shaw Buildings), the Law Courts are in decorative but stern Victorian Gothic style similar to the buildings of Dunedin's University of Otago Registry Building.〔McGill, D., & Sheehan, G., (1997) ''Landmarks: Notable historic buildings of New Zealand.'' Auckland:Godwit Publishing. ISBN 1-86962-003-8. pp. 228–9〕
As is common with many of Dunedin's more substantial historic structures (including the railway station opposite) the Law Courts are constructed of dark Port Chalmers breccia ornamented with lighter Oamaru stone, a local compacted limestone mined to the north of Dunedin, and is topped with a roof of slate and granite. The main entrance to the court sits at the foot of a short tower which is decorated with an un-blindfolded statue of Justice in Italian white marble.〔
