Clarence Town Courthouse Museum Description
Erringhi was the Aboriginal name for the area in which Clarence town now resides. A town was establish on the banks of the Williams river and was renamed Clarence Town in 1826 and was a timber cutting town. The current Town Courthouse was built in 1869 and remained a courthouse until about 1970. The building remained idle until a bi-centenary project was set in motion to restore it in 1986, this work was completed in 1992.
