Take a look around: Ballymena construction firm completes £6.5million restoration of a 200-year-old Northern Ireland Courthouse building

  • yesterday
A Northern Ireland construction company has completed the restoration of a 200-year-old Courthouse building.

Ballymena based Martin & Hamilton Construction have completed the €7.8m (over £6.5million) conservation and extension of this Victorian Grade B listed building situated on the Main Street in the centre of Bushmills village.

The Courthouse dates back to 1834, constructed by the local landowners, the MacNaghten family, as a Petty Claims court. The building had been derelict for over 50 years and so had suffered extreme deterioration internally.

Following the successful completion of the scheme, The Courthouse Shared Space Creative Hub officially opened at the weekend.
