Ennis Courthouse, Neoclassical courthouse in Ennis, Ireland

Ennis Courthouse is a neoclassical judicial facility on Gort Road, completed in 1852 to designs by John Keane and Henry Whitestone. Built in ashlar stone, it has a symmetrical main frontage facing the junction of Gort Road and New Road, with a flight of steps leading up to a large hexastyle portico of Ionic columns supporting an entablature and a modillioned pediment.

Ennis Courthouse was designed by John Keane and Henry Whitestone in the neoclassical style and built in ashlar stone, completed in 1852. After the Local Government (Ireland) Act 1898 created county councils, it also became the meeting place of Clare County Council, which remained until the council moved to Áras Contae an Chláir in New Road in May 2008.

A monument to Éamon de Valera, former President of Ireland, was designed by the sculptor Jim Connolly and erected outside the courthouse in 1981. The building also holds a mid-19th-century statue of Michael O'Loghlen, former Master of the Rolls in Ireland, carved by Joseph Robinson Kirk.

Ennis Courthouse stands at the junction of Gort Road and New Road, its hexastyle Ionic portico facing the crossroads, so it is easily picked out on foot. It remains a working judicial facility, and access is restricted while court is in session. The Crimean War Russian artillery piece and the 1981 Éamon de Valera monument by Jim Connolly stand on the lawn outside.

The grounds hold a Russian artillery piece from the Crimean War, an unexpected historical artifact that sits alongside other monuments on the site. This is a rarely noticed wartime relic that most visitors overlook while viewing the building itself.
