Perth Sheriff Court, Category A listed courthouse in Perth, Scotland

The Perth Sheriff Court building features a Greek Revival design with a colonnade of ten fluted Doric columns supporting an entablature and pediment.

The courthouse, completed in 1819, stands on the former site of Gowrie House, where a plot to assassinate King James VI occurred in 1600.

The structure serves as the primary judicial center for Perth and Kinross, handling criminal, civil, and family cases within the Scottish legal system.

The Sheriff Clerk's office operates Monday through Friday with specific hours from 09:00 to 13:00 and 14:00 to 16:00 for public assistance.

A bronze panel by Sir John Steell on the south wall commemorates the previous Gowrie House that occupied this location.
