Warwick Court House, historic site in Queensland, Australia

Warwick Court House is a courthouse in the Queensland town of Warwick, built from sandstone and timber with a prominent clock tower facade. The complex includes the court building, a stone police station with arched windows, a lock-up for prisoners, and a keeper's residence, all constructed in simple classical style from locally quarried stone.

The complex was constructed between 1885 and 1901 after earlier court buildings in town were repeatedly flooded by the Condamine River. Construction of the main court building started in 1885 under architect John James Clark, while the stone police station was built in 1901 to consolidate law enforcement functions in one location.

The courthouse clock was supplied by Flavelle Brothers and Roberts after townspeople had long asked for a public timepiece. The 1892 timber lock-up, with three cells and keeper's quarters, later became housing for married police officers. The former strong room at the rear now serves as a storeroom.

The complex occupies the block bounded by Fitzroy, Guy and Albion Streets, with the 1886 court house at the Fitzroy–Guy corner and the 1901 stone police station on the adjoining Fitzroy Street land. The former 1892 timber lock-up stands within the court house yard. The buildings remain working court and police premises, so visitors should keep to public areas and avoid photographing people entering or leaving.

The clock tower was not part of John James Clark's original design; the decision to add it was taken during construction, and the clock came from Flavelle Brothers and Roberts. The court house also proved drafty with poor acoustics, blamed on "over-ventilation" through superfluous ceiling openings, so roof ventilators were capped and a false ceiling fitted in the courtroom.
