Learn about early justice in the Colony of British Columbia. Let the notorious Judge Begbie and his assistants deliver anecdotes about Barkerville's criminals and infamous characters.

During the summer, Begbie holds court at the beautifully restored Richfield Courthouse (Map #128), a 1.6km (1 mile) easy, half hour walk from Barkerville. Stagecoach Rides available from Barnard's Express (Map #24).

During the spring and fall, court is held in Barkerville, at the Methodist Church (Map #7).

See the Daily Schedule for times.

Included in the cost of admission.
