DISORDER IN COURT

Once packed with defiant judges and disgruntled defendants, the courtrooms inside an iconic South Yorkshire landmark are eerily empty. The Old Town Hall in Sheffield was home to the city's crown court, but now the Grade II listed building lies abandoned. These photographs were captured by photographer Dan Circa, 28, after he decided to visit the courtrooms and holdings cells located in the Waingate, Sheffield. 'It's such a rare sight to see and roam free in somewhere like this,' says Dan, of Manchester.
