The courthouse is a category C listed building. Its listing at http://portal.historicenvironment.scot/designation/LB43057 says that it is, "a good example of burgh civic architecture. Designed by David Cousin in the 1860s, it is a relatively unusual adaptation of the Franco-Gothic architectural style which became popular in the mid-19th century for country house design but was less commonly used for public buildings."
