Albany Courthouse, Stirling Terrace, Albany, Western Australia

            A heritage listed building and other listed  buildings found on the site include the Albany Courthouse, Gaolkeepers House and Residence 1845.

Building the courthouse commenced in 1896 on the site of the old state school which was demolished. The building was to take nine months to complete but was delayed in 1897 when the supply of bricks was exhausted. Construction was completed on 7 February 1898 and the building was opened the acting Premier, Edward Wittenoom.  The building initially contained a police station and later offices for the Public Works Department.

The court was the most expensive of the regional courts built during the gold boom, only Geraldton and Coolgardie courts, that were combined with other Government offices, having grander buildings. Even the courts in Perth had to wait until 1903 to outshine the Albany building when the Supreme Court building was completed.

In 1908 a lockup and keeper's residence were constructed behind the court. A garage and wood shed were added in 1945 and the building was connected to the town sewer system in 1957.

Following the construction of a new police station in 1966 the police offices were taken over by the bailiff.
