About Stroud Court House Museum
The first Police Station/Court House was erected on this site by the Australian Agricultural Company in the 1840’s, it was replaced by the present building in 1877. The building was completed in time to hear the case of the unsolved McAskell double murders which occurred at Booral Wharf in 1878.
The Police residence and cells were directly behind the court house and were demolished in the 1930’s.
Original court furniture has been retained, which were mostly cedar.
The court house operated as the Stroud Court of Petty Sessions from 17 October 1853 to 21 January 1977.
The first elected Stroud Shire Council meeting was held at the court house in December 1906.
