The Old Courthouse in Howth is a former place of worship that was subsequently used as a courthouse.[1] It was built around 1845 and initially served as a place of worship for fishermen, before being used as a rent collection office by agents of Lord Howth.[1] By 1870, it was functioning as a local courthouse and continued until 1970.[1] It is located at the junction of Harbour Road and Church Street.[2] The building is a protected structure under Part IV of the Planning & Development Act 2000 with RPS 567.[3][4] It is part of the Howth Historic Core Architectural Statement of Character.[3]

It was refurbished in early 2020 as a tourist centre.[5][2]
