County Buildings Papers - Quarter Sessions

County Buildings Papers: Papers re the renovation of the County Hall (Beaumaris Courthouse) and other buildings at Beaumaris.

The Beaumaris courthouse was built in 1614.

The building was enlarged in the early 19th cent. by adding a grand jury room at the east end, short transepts, a petty jury room on the north side, and utilitarian additions, including the heightening of the porch to create a records room above it. By this time, the building was also used as the County Hall.

The court remained as an assize court until 1971.

It is now retained as a museum by the Beaumaris Town Council.
