There's two different tiers of courts - civil and criminal. The top courts are the same for both.
CRIMINAL
Magistrates - EVERY criminal matter starts here, 97% of them finish here. They deal with all small crimes an consist of 3 lay magistrates (or one District Judge).
Crown - Cases deemed to serious for the Mags come here. They are tried in front of a jury with a Judge presiding.
Court of Appeal - Cases appealed ROM the Crown come here
House of Lords - Cases appealed from the CoA come here
CIVIL
County - District Judge. Small room, informal, deals with all kind of civil matters
County - Circut Judge - same building as above, but for cases that have become too complicated for DJ
High Court - high profile cases or ones with an important point of law come here instead of County
Court of Appeal - Apeals from County and High
House of Lords - Appeals from CoA
(Gwion - cases over £5k are still heard at County- they are called fast-track or multi-track cases. Under £5k are small claims)
