1 When a coroner investigates
A coroner investigates when:
- deaths are violent or unnatural
- the cause of death is unknown
- the person died in prison, police custody or other state detention.
More information on what happens when a death is reported to a coroner, post-mortems and inquests is available on GOV.UK.
2 Court facilities and support
Court layout
- The coroner will sit at the front of the room.
- The witness desk and coroner’s officer desk will be at the front of the room either side of the coroner.
- Legal representatives will sit at desks facing the coroner.
- If there is a jury, they will normally be seated to one side of the room so that they have a clear view of the witness desk, the legal representatives and the coroner.
- Family members of the deceased will normally sit behind the legal representatives.
Opening hours
- Doors are only open to the public when the court is in session.
Parking
Visitors should park off site and there are several public car parks nearby.

Car parking
There is ample free parking in marked and unmarked bay.
Public transport
The court is within 5-10 minutes walk from bus stops nearby. Find more information about bus numbers and times.
Accommodation
The Coroners Court is open to members of the public. However, accommodation at Woodvale Coroner’s Court is limited, therefore priority will always be given to family, other interested persons and witnesses.
Where there is likely to be a large number of attendees, alternative venues will be used.
If you wish to attend any particular inquest it would be helpful if you could give an indication in advance of the hearing. In certain circumstances, and at the discretion of the Coroner, it may be possible to facilitate attendance via Microsoft Teams. To notify us of your attendance, or to request video attendance to an inquest, contact the Coroner's Office.
Please do not attend the Court if you are experiencing any coronavirus symptoms.
Coroner’s Court support service
Emotional and practical support to families and witnesses attending inquests can be found on the Coroners' Courts Support Service website.
We are delighted to announce that the Coroner Court Support volunteers have been honoured by the High Sherriff of West Sussex in recognition of the great and valuable services they provide to the community of West Sussex. The awards ceremony was held on Thursday, 21 March 2024.
I have visited so many incredible organisations and charities which make such an impact on people’s lives. I was able to select a few which are representative of those who quietly do so much to keep people safe and well and to help them thrive and enjoy life.
My congratulations to all of those organisations which received recognition certificates. They are richly deserved. Thank you for making our wonderful county a better place in which to live and visit.
The High Sheriff
I am so very proud of the volunteers who make up the Coroners Court Support Service. They selflessly give up their time to provide practical and emotional support to families and witnesses who attend the coroners court for the inquests of their loved ones. They provide this support to families at what is a very difficult time in their lives. They really do make a difference.

4 Types of inquests
- Opening - The coroner formally opens an inquest in public. At the opening, the coroner will set the dates for subsequent hearings. In some cases, the inquest will conclude on the same day as it is opened (known as single hearing inquests).
- Full inquest - A fact-finding inquiry held in court to establish who has died and how, when and where the death occurred. They can be held with our without a jury. Witnesses may be called to give evidence.
- Pre-inquest review hearing - An administrative hearing held before the final inquest hearing. Where procedural issues are dealt with in preparation for the inquest.
- Documentary inquest - Where evidence is not in dispute and no witnesses need to be called, a summary of the evidence is read to the court and the coroner will arrive at their conclusion on the basis of the documents alone.
- Inquests in writing - These inquests are conducted on the basis of documentary evidence and do not require a court hearing. The coroner will provide a written note of their conclusion. Inquests in writing will be listed at 9.00am on the Monday of each week. However, they may be concluded at any time during that week.
Emotional and practical support to families and witnesses attending inquests can be found on the Coroners' Courts Support Service website.
5 Dates of upcoming inquests
From Tuesday 28 June 2022, new legal provisions contained in section 85A of the Courts Act 2003 and the Remote Observation and Recording (Courts and Tribunals) Regulations 2022 came into effect, making it lawful to permit the public or press to observe coroners’ inquests remotely by video link.
Most inquest hearings are held in person and are not remote, therefore no remote link will be available. However, where it has been already determined by a coroner that a hearing is to be a remote hearing or a hybrid hearing (a partially remote hearing), then any press or public wishing to observe those inquest proceedings remotely may apply for permission by completing our online form.
Please note any request must be made 48 hours before the hearing is due to be heard.
For the avoidance of doubt, if the hearing is listed for more than one day, then any request to attend all or any part of the hearing remotely must be made 48 hours before the first day of the hearing.
Request to observe an inquest remotely (external link)Search inquests
Inquests are searchable for the next 60 days. If you are concerned that an inquest does not appear, you are welcome to contact the Coroner's office.
We aim to keep to listed timings, however due to extenuating circumstances arising on the day this is not always possible.

All complaints about the administration of West Sussex Coroner Service, or the conduct of an individual coroner or officer should be raised with the senior coroner first.
We aim to acknowledge complaints on the day we receive them. Should the matter require a detailed investigation we try to respond within 10 working days, but we will get in touch should this not be possible.
If you are not satisfied with the response you receive, see the The Coroners’ Society of England and Wales - how to complain.
