Description

Temple Cloud Court House is a court house and police station built in 1857. It is constructed of coursed rubble with irregular quoins and stone dressings. The roof features a slate mansard and pitched design with bracketed eaves. The building is designed in the Neo-Jacobean style and has two storeys with three windows. The gables are stepped ogee and curvilinear, topped with finials. The windows are two and three-light casements with chamfered stone mullions and transoms. The ground floor windows have dripmoulds with returns, all set under relieving arches made of alternating light and dark stone.

The central section of the building is slightly advanced and features a central arched doorway under a hoodmould with figure stops, flanked by single light windows. This section culminates in a curvilinear gable adorned with pierced pyramid and globe finials. A datestone in the gable bears the inscription: "DIVISIONAL COURT & POLICE STATION."

To the south, there is an attached hexagonal belvedere that is two storeys high, with corner buttresses and a truncated roof. To the north, set back but still attached to the rear of the main block, is a flight of stone stairs leading to an upper floor entry under a coped curvilinear gable.
