Don't let this opportunity pass you by! Former Court House and Jail, original building constructed in 1854 to act as the centre of Government for the newly formed County of Grey. This property retains a lot of the original character associated with this type of facility including Jail cells reminiscent of 1800's incarceration. Many potential uses exist for the building and the current owner is looking for that special purchaser that can appreciate the provenance of a property of this magnitude. Property includes 2 PIN numbers 370550267 and 370550073. Portions of the Building are designated under the Ontario Heritage Act. Bring your ideas forward today!
