Town Hall, High Street, Lockerbie

The Town Hall on High Street in Lockerbie was originally designed by David Bryce in 1873, with construction starting after 1884 and including some modifications. This building features extravagant Scots Baronial ornamentation, highlighted by a tall square corner tower that has conical-roofed bartizans, balustrades, and clocks, all topped with a steep slate roof and an ogee-cupola. The structure is primarily built of red ashlar, which is mostly stugged and snecked, with polished dressings.

The main elevations are designed with an entrance bay next to the tower, featuring an ornately detailed main entrance on High Street that includes a moulded round-arched doorway with recessed columns and a parapet. There is a wide gabled bay beyond the entrance, with the elevation facing Bridge Street displaying asymmetrical corbel tables, while the High Street side has bartizans and a large mullioned and transomed window on the first floor. The ground floor features two shouldered wide panels with decorative three-light windows, and both sides have slated roofs.

A tall four-bay wing facing Bridge Street may not be part of the original design and could possibly be the hall added in 1889; it includes mullioned and transomed windows on the first floor and an advanced outer gable. The interior is of high quality, showcasing coffered plaster ceilings and a balustraded main staircase with an arcaded gallery above.
