Description

Menai Courthouse Church is a two-storey building with a two-bay elevation, notable for the round-arched windows of the former courtroom located in the principal upper storey. These windows are positioned beneath paired gabled dormers that project from the main hipped roof. The walls are made of rendered and painted limestone, featuring stressed plain quoins, and topped with a hipped slate roof. The entrance is located to the right, with small paired 4-pane sash windows to the left. The upper windows are recessed in tall round-arched openings and consist of paired 8-pane sashes with geometric glazing in the tympanum of the arch. There are oculi in the gable apexes above. A porch, set back to the right, provides access to the upper storey, featuring a square-headed entrance with limestone dressings and a cornice. A wrought iron gate leads to the porch, which has a boarded door behind it.

Inside, the main courtroom features a panelled wooden magistrates bench with a sloping top supported by decorative scrolled wooden brackets, along with a bench seat at the front. Three sets of painted wooden bench seating face the magistrates bench, with backs supported by chamfered balusters. The magistrates room, located in a later extension at the rear of the building, includes original boarded shutters on the door to the right. The lower storey rooms retain original doors and cupboards.
