His plans were adapted by James Gillespie Graham (1766-1855) and the court house was erected between 1816 and 1820. The contractors, William Lumsden and James Peddie, were from Edinburgh and the building cost £5,858. The court house is two-storeyed with an attic. At the rear of the court house, is this semicircular projection which contains a first-floor court room. Inveraray's court house and county jails are built within an enclosure situated on Crown Point. This enclosure sits on top of a retaining wall on the shores of Loch Fyne.
