Description

Crown Court House, built in 1810, is a notable example of Neo-Greek architecture, with extensions added in 1849-50. The building is two storeys high and constructed from sandstone ashlar, featuring banded rustication on all walls. It has a tetrastyle design, with a Doric pedimented portico that includes eight side steps leading to the stylobate. The central door is flanked by sash windows that have glazing bars. The building also has plain parapets on its one-storey side wings. To the left, a set-back two-storey section contains three pairs of windows, along with an entablature and a blocking course that continues with the return of the main block.
