The sidewalk runs in front of the green lawn which surrounds the courthouse and contains short bushes as well as a grey obelisk set atop a tall sloping base. The courthouse building itself is white with red tile roofing and white window frames. The entrance is shaded a large pediment supported by four tall columns and topped by a triangular roof with a half-circle window. Two rows of windows span the width of each side of the building except the inverted corners of the structure, which each have a side with only one window. Above the level of the pediment over the courthouse's entrance is a third row of smaller windows, set towards the top of the wall under the roof's edge.
