Scope and Content Glasgow Green Court-house (now known as 'High Courts'), Glasgow Glasgow Green Court-house was built as a replacement for Glasgow Tolbooth. The architect, William Stark was selected after a competition with two other architects, David Hamilton and Robert Reid. The work was partly financed by selling the old tolbooth. The court-house was completed in 1814 at a total cost of £34,811. The prison proved to be too small and the building was used exclusively for law-courts after 1845. It became the Justiciary Court in 1913. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
