Description

Photograph of Limestone County Courthouse in Groesbeck, TX. A white truck in the right side of the photo drives from a red brick road, past a grassy median, and towards the concrete driveway of the courthouse, which curves from the left side of the image towards the right. On either side of the driveway are small patches of grass in the form of a lawn and a median, while a black and white car sits parked in the driveway directly in front of the courthouse. A tall tree and multiple bushes are planed around the base of the building. The courthouse is made of dark red bricks and white stone and faces the right side of the photo, with a small set of stairs leading up to its entrance. The building has two horizontal rows of tall windows across the main section of the building as well as two horizontal rows of smaller windows, one near the roof's edge and one along the bottom edge of the building. The small windows near the edge of the roof have a small, railed balcony in front of them, spanning most of the building's width. For the main two horizontal rows of windows at the front of the courthouse, stone columns divide each vertical row of the windows. Additional columns appear on the left side of the building, which faces the left edge of the photo, and are holding up a pediment with a design carved at its top. The design is also used on either side of the courthouse's corners, at the edge of the roof. The roof itself is flat, with only two thin metal structures on top of it.
