Old Cleveland Court House, Heritage courthouse in Cleveland, Queensland, Australia.

The Old Cleveland Court House stands at Paxton Street with its painted brick structure, hipped corrugated iron roof, and traditional timber posts along the verandah.

Built around 1853 for Francis and Frederick Bigge, the building initially served as workers' quarters before becoming a courthouse and police residence until 1880.

The structure represents early European settlement patterns in Queensland, demonstrating the evolution of law administration and community development in colonial Australia.

The building now functions as a restaurant space with a courtyard extension completed in 1977, making it accessible for public dining experiences.

The interior maintains original features including brick walls, moulded cornices, and a fireplace transferred from the former Bellevue Hotel in Brisbane.
