Town House, 1737-47. Work on this handsome piece of civic pride began in 1737, the year after the Earl of Kintore was elected Provost: the cost was borne by him. It is unusual for its date and is now a fine part of the townscape, with graceful external double stairs and clock-tower with ogee roof. Two-storey, five-window front in rough granite ashlar; burgh gaol under stairs; late 18th century wing at back; 1702 bell for kirk and burgh.
