Clonmel Courthouse was a judicial facility in Clonmel, County Tipperary, Ireland.
History
The courthouse, which was designed by
Young Irelanders were brought to Clonmel for trial.[2]
The building was primarily used as a facility for dispensing justice but, following the implementation of the Local Government (Ireland) Act 1898, which established county councils in every county, the Grand Jury Room also became the meeting place for South Tipperary County Council.[3] The county council moved to the Civic Offices in Emmet Street in 1927.[4]
