St Catherines Ontario ~ Canada ~ Old Courthouse ~ Lincoln County Courthouse ~ Heritage

Constructed in 1849 as the Town Hall by well-known architect Kivas Tully. Construction of a new wing coincided with it becoming the Lincoln County Courthouse in 1862. Note the stained glass transom and uniquely curving balustrades; the steer's head and wheat sheaf on the James St. side, symbolizing the nearby market; the wrought iron fence; and the water fountain (1878), gift of Mayor Lucius Oille
