The first court house in Carroll County. Built about 1825, was constructed of logs and stood on the site of Carrollton. A second court house was built of brick, but burned in 1859. Another court house was built of brick on the same site after the War of Secession and continued in use until the removal of the county seat to Berryville in 1880. The county was named in honor of Charles Carroll of Carrollton, a signer of the Declaration of Independence.
