The doors are outlined by a white stone frame that curves into a half-circle at the top and have a short set of red stairs with white railing that lead from the sidewalk to the doors. Two rows of windows span the width of the building, with the top row having white behind their windowpanes while the bottom row has green. The walls of the building are made of orange bricks and white stone, with the stone used to create a strip of white below the lower row of windows as well as frame and decorate windows and lien the roof's edge. Above the outward projecting section of the courthouse is a blue clockface, set into decorative white stone at the edge of the building's flat roof.
