Texas Historic Site Atlas

In general, the Hutchinson County Courthouse is in good repair and retains a good amount of integrity. The exterior exhibits minor masonry mortar joint deterioration, some degradation on the brick leveling course, and minor cracks on the limestone friezes.

These are all normal issues of wear, reflect the age of the building, and do not negatively affect the property's integrity. Elements that have a minor impact on integrity include the use of modern aluminum storefront doors on the north and south entries, the enclosure of the historically open breezeway beneath the east and west exterior stairs, and the removal of the historic light fixtures on each elevation. These changes, however, could be reversed without damage to the historic fabric and the exterior could be returned to its original appearance.
