Athlone is a branch court operating under the Wynberg sub district of Cape Town rather than a court in its own right, and its street and postal codes differ.
Official contact channels
- Court: 021 697 1246
Services and responsibilities
A branch court is a permanent office administered from a main seat. Athlone falls within the Cape Town magisterial district, whose main seat on 021 401 1547 sits at Parade Street and at two further city centre venues.
Office and address information
The court is on Old Klipfontein Road, Athlone, 7764, while post goes to Private Bag X1, Athlone, 7760. Both codes are Athlone, but only 7760 works for correspondence. No street number is published.
Applications and escalation
Because Athlone is a branch court, records and some administrative functions may sit at Wynberg or at the Cape Town main seat. Bishop Lavis, on 021 934 1021, is another branch court in the same metro but under Goodwood rather than Wynberg.
