Ashland, Administrative center in Clay County, Alabama.

Ashland operates as the seat of Clay County government, with administrative offices centralized at 25 Court Square in the downtown district.

Established in 1867 on land donated by Hollingsworth Watts, Ashland received its name from Henry Clay's Kentucky estate and became incorporated in 1871.

The Classical Revival architecture of the Clay County Courthouse, completed in 1906, represents the primary governmental structure in the community.

The Administrative Division manages essential services including finance, human resources, facilities management, and information technology for the district.

Located at 1,130 feet above sea level, Ashland holds the distinction of being the highest-elevated county seat in the state of Alabama.
