Olive Clapham – 'first woman barrister' | Feature


By Dr Caroline Derry10 May 2021
On 25 May 1921, The Times published the bar final examination results. For the first time, the list of successful candidates included a woman: Olive Catherine Clapham. The newspaper marked this milestone with a short article highlighting her achievement, headlined ‘The First Woman Barrister’.

That headline was of course inaccurate. The exams were only one step towards qualification, though an important one. Clapham still had to keep six more dining terms at her Inn of Court, Middle Temple (pictured), before she could be called to the bar, which would take at least 18 months. However, The Times was not alone in being carried away. The Law Coach, a publication for law students, whose editor Edgar Hammond had tutored Clapham for the exams, pointed out The Times’ error but added one of its own: Clapham ‘will no doubt be the first woman barrister in the course of a week or two’. ....

The Case of the Married Woman, Lady Antonia Fraser has today unveiled a blue plaque from English Heritage at the 19th century women s rights campaigner s London home of 30 years at 3 Chesterfield Street.
Born in London in 1808, Caroline married George Norton in 1827, going on to have three sons with him. The couple separated after years of domestic violence and Norton used the law to grant himself custody of their children. Caroline began lobbying for a change to the law - something that was passed in 1839. The Infant Custody Bill has been described as the first piece of feminist legislation. In 1852, Caroline was forced to begin lobbying for another law change, after her estranged husband stopped paying her allowance, while also channelling her earnings into his own bank accounts.

First woman barrister gets a plaque

The first woman to practise as a barrister in England and Wales is to be commemorated with a blue plaque from English Heritage. Helena Normanton KC, born in 1882, was the first woman to benefit from the Sex Disqualification (Removal) Act 1919, which opened up the legal profession to women.
In December 1919 she became the first woman to join one of the Inns of Court, having unsuccessfully challenged the refusal by Middle Temple to admit her prior to the act.
In November 1922 she became the second woman called to the bar of England and Wales, following Ivy Williams in May 1922, but she was the first to practise. Normanton was also the first woman to appear in the High Court and at the Old Bailey and to lead a prosecution in a murder trial. ....
