Proceedings of the Old Bailey website
(www.oldbaileyonline.org)
The Old Bailey Proceedings Online project is pleased to announce the release of an additional 23,000 trials, covering the period 1760-1799. The site now includes 45,000 trials, giving full coverage from December 1714 to December 1799. The new trials, which include some of the longest trials in the entire 1674-1834 period, include several famous cases, among which are those of the Gordon rioters, the "London Monster", and the Perreaus and Mrs Rudd, as well as many lesser known but equally fascinating cases. They include the trials of some of the first convicts transported to Australia, and provide evidence of the increasing presence of defence counsel. The second release of trials has been accompanied by the addition of new search features and updates to many of the Web pages.
