The court may in any case if it thinks fit at any time before the jury have
given their verdict direct that they shall view any place or thing which the
court thinks it desirable that they should see and may give any directions
necessary for that purpose. The validity of the proceedings shall not be
affected by disobedience to any such directions, but if the fact is discovered
before the verdict is given the court may if it thinks fit discharge the jury
and direct that a new trial shall take place during the same sitting or may
postpone the trial as provided by section three hundred and sixty.
