County Buildings

The County Building is a Grade B listed building in the very centre of Wigtown. It was built in 1863 and is iconic of Wigtown being the largest building in the town. The building was refurbished in 2003 with support from the Heritage Lottery Fund and is still in daily use housing the library and museum as well as two large halls, meeting rooms and offices. It is rightly regarded as the most important building in the town.

There are two main halls available; The Main Hall which has a capacity for 150, and the Supper Room with a capacity of 80. There is also a commercial kitchen available to book with either hall. The Main hall has a stage area.
