The old courts were originally built as the new Town Hall in 1807–8 by Charles Watson. The initial building was a five-bay structure fronting Castle Street, but it was extended in 1833 and again in 1866. The most prominent feature was the new central clock tower over a new main entrance. By the 1890s the building had again become too small, and the current Sheffield Town Hall was built further south. The Old Town Hall was again extended in 1896-7, and became Sheffield Crown Court and Sheffield High Court. In the 1990s these courts moved to new premises and the building has remained disused since.
