Jurors in the fresh inquests into the Hillsborough tragedy will make a visit to the stadium but will not be allowed to read on-site tributes to the victims, a coroner heard.The announcement was made at a fifth preliminary hearing ahead of the new inquests, due to start next month.
Ninety-six Liverpool fans died as a result of a crush during an FA Cup semi-final game, on 15 April 1989.
Fresh inquests into the deaths are set to begin on 31 March.
Christina Lambert QC, counsel to the inquests, said there was "broad agreement" on the parts of the stadium and locations nearby which should be viewed by the jury in the inquests' early stages.
"Our view is that it is reasonable for the jury to view the current police box even though its location is not precisely as it was in 1989," she told a pre-inquest hearing in central London.
'Objective approach'
She added: "We also consider that it would appropriate for the jury to see the memorial but not to read the tributes.
"The reason that we make this final observation is because the jury must remain objective and must be seen to be objective in their approach to the issues.
"Having visited the memorial myself there is no doubt that the tributes that are made there are deeply moving."
Ms Lambert told coroner Lord Justice Goldring that the fresh inquest should aim to conclude around Christmas time, so as not to overburden the jury with too much information.
But Patrick Roche, counsel to 74 of the 96 victims, countered: "We don't accept that Christmas is necessarily the limit, we don't accept at all that it is the limitation of the jury's patience or their ability to remember the evidence.
"Our families have no desire to prolong the inquest any more than is necessary."
The High Court quashed the original inquest verdicts in December 2012 following publication of the Hillsborough Independent Panel in September 2012, which said 41 of those who died might have been saved.
The new inquests are to be held in Warrington, Cheshire.
