In Person
Dumbarton Sheriff Court designed by Scottish architect James Gillespie Graham, the foundation stone of the building was laid on 19th July 1824 and the neoclassical building was completed in 1826. Over the last 2 centuries, it has served not just as a courthouse but also as the seat of Dunbartonshire County Council and as the headquarters of the local police force. Since 1965 it has exclusively served as the Sheriff and Justice of the Peace Court and it was extensively modernised in 2009.
There will be guided tours of the court building including the cell complex every 15 minutes throughout the day.
