Scope and Content Staircase with portraits inside Wick Town Hall, Highland Wick Town Hall replaced an 18th-century tolbooth which was so insecure that the council suffered severe financial penalties because of escapes. The original design was considered too costly and a smaller more compact scheme was adopted. The main staircase is hung with portraits of local notables. The court-room, which is largely unaltered, contains a similar collection. The rest of the interior has undergone extensive alteration. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
