The Stewart Island Magistrate's Court is built of wood and iron, stands on a quarter-acre section in Ayr Street, and was erected in 1896. The business of the court is conducted by three justices. During the year 1903 there were no charges of drunkenness before the court—a testimony to the sobriety of the district.
