Ayr Court House, Heritage-listed courthouse in Ayr, Queensland, Australia
The Ayr Court House features a single-story red brick structure with gabled roofs, wide verandahs, timber balustrading, and a decorative entrance parapet at Queen Street.
Built between 1935 and 1941 during the Great Depression, this courthouse replaced earlier structures from 1883 and 1897 to serve the growing population of the region.
The courthouse demonstrates the development of Queensland's judicial system and represents the establishment of government services in regional agricultural communities during the 20th century.
Located at 163 Queen Street within the civic precinct, the building continues to function as an operational courthouse while maintaining its status on the Queensland Heritage Register.
The building's T-shaped design executed in brick rather than timber distinguishes it from other regional courthouses constructed during the same period in Queensland.
