Description
The Old Gaol, designed by architect Francis Goodwin, dates from around 1830 and now serves as the entrance to the Greyhound track. The building features a largely unaltered facade, consisting of a single storey constructed in ashlar. It has corner towers and side wings that are divided by shallow pilasters into four bays. The central doorway is massive and flanked by solid piers with pilastered sides, each containing a narrow window. The entrance is located between two large Tuscan columns and is adorned with a triplyph frieze and a modillion cornice above. The sides have a plain frieze, and there is a small parapet topped with a central rectangular stepped pediment.
