Description
In 1939 the existing 1859 courthouse was extensively renovated and a new rear addition was added. This work was attributed to the WPA in a 1978 report entitled 100 Courthouses, A Report on North Carolina Judicial Facilities. The architect for the new addition was A. Mitchell Wooten, who did the Lenoir Courthouse.
