Perth Sheriff Court needs maintenance work estimated to cost nearly half a million pounds - the fifth highest total worked out for repairs needed at sheriff court buildings across Scotland.
Data obtained by the Scottish Conservatives using Freedom of Information (FOI) legislation shows court buildings across the country require more than £7.3 million worth of repairs in total.
And a document setting out what work each of Scotland’s functioning court buildings requires shows Perth Sheriff Court has been identified as needing £422,000 worth of upkeep including electrical work costing £95,000 and a planned £250,000 upgrade of one of its courtrooms.
