Sometimes referred to as the Tolbooth, the magnificent Town Hall was built in 2 main stages. The steeple and some other parts of an earlier Town Hall were built in 1723. There were significant alterations and additions in 1867. The entire building is built from red ashlar. A statue of the Rev William Graham, a local historian, is above the entrance doorway while a pair of cast-iron lamps stand in front of the doorway. The town hall is a Category A listed building. https://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/200382655-high-street-tolbooth-including-iron-lamps-lochmaben#.WwhsVjGWzwo
