PETTY & QUARTER SESSIONS

The Isle of Wight held its first Court of Quarter Sessions in 1952. Before that date details of Isle of Wight cases are found among the records of the Hampshire Record Office. Newport Borough, however, had been granted the right to hold a separate court in 1608 and continued to do so until 1835.
