The Town house stands on the corner of Bridge Street and High Street, and dominates the centre of the town. This is the back of the building from one of the many lanes that link Water Street and High Street. The building was possibly designed by John Smith (1781-1852) and it is partly inspired by 16th century Scottish tolbooths.
