 # 5 Glasgow Green Court-house Glasgow Green Court-house was built as a replacement for Glasgow Tolbooth. The architect, William Stark was selected after a competition with two other architects, David Hamilton and Robert Reid. The work was partly financed by selling the old tolbooth. The court-house was completed in 1814 at a total cost of £34,811. The prison proved to be too small and the building was used exclusively for law-courts after 1845. It became the Justiciary Court in 1913. Further information may be found in CANMORE, the Royal Commission's searchable online database, at  http://canmore.org.uk/site/search .
