Title

Kintore Town House

Description

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 and wing at the back.
