The sea facing side of County Buildings was built in the 1920's to provide space for Ayr County Council to operate. In May 1975 Ayr County Council was abolished and its functions transferred to Strathclyde Regional Council based in Glasgow.
County Buildings became the home of Kyle & Carrick District Council. In 1996 there was a further reform of Local Government. the Regional Councils were abolished and the present Unitary Authorities were created. Kyle & Carrick District Council became South Ayrshire Council with many of the powers that the defunct Regional & District Councils had had. Control over Police, Fire, Water and Public Transport were transferred to Joint Boards to which South Ayrshire Council sent representatives.

Organized in 1854, Johnson County located its seat of government in Wardville and in Buchanan before moving in 1867 to Camp Henderson, which later became Cleburne. The Buchanan courthouse was moved to the new county seat and used until 1869, when the county constructed a new two-story brick building. By 1880, that facility had become too small, and three years later a magnificent second empire courthouse, designed by W.C. Dodson, took its place.
Fire destroyed Dodson’s 1883 building on April 15, 1912, and the commissioners court chose German-born Otto Lang (1864-1947) and Welshmen Frank Witchell (1879-1958) to design their new house of justice. While many firms of the time were designing Beaux Arts or late Victorian structures, Lang and Witchell were fond of the increasingly popular Prairie School style as inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright and Louis Sullivan. Johnson County Courthouse drawings are attributed to Architect Charles E. Barglebaugh, the project architect for Lang and Witchell who trained under Wright.
Completed in 1913, the courthouse is very similar to Lang and Witchell’s Cooke County Courthouse in Gainesville, Texas. Designed on a basic Beaux Arts plan but Modernized with Prairie style elements and Sullivanesque details, the Johnson County Courthouse features a prominent clock tower and an impressive six-story interior atrium topped by a stained art glass dome.
At the dawn of the 21st century, the Johnson County Courthouse remains in service as the center of county government. (2000) (Marker No. ?????)
