Former Central Magistracy
1 Arbuthnot Road, Central

Another Magistracy dating from as early as 1847 originally stood on this site, but was later demolished to make way for the present building, which was completed in 1914. The Magistracy walls are of Canton red brick faced with Amoy bricks on the outer surface. The finely moulded cement-concrete pillars and other decorative features follow the Greek revival style. A dressed granite archway and pediment adorns the front entrance. (Not open to the public.)
