The court House consists of 2 brick buildings parallel to each other situated on a large government reserve at the corner of Hodgkinson and Church Streets,
The original 1887 court house is a two storey classical revival building of rendered brick with a corrugated iron roof set well back facing Hodgkinson Street. The court room is approached through a portico with a Tuscan order arcade of 3 bays separated by square pilasters rising through 2 stories to the triangular pediment. The 1890s extension building is set back from the older building and only joins it towards the rear. It is constructed of brick with a gambrel roof clad in corrugated iron and is basically rectangular in shape.
