Wicklow Town Courthouse and the ancillary buildings on site are the property of the Courts Service. The Office of Public Works carried out an assessment on Wicklow Town Courthouse last year. This did not include the ancillary buildings behind the Courthouse. However, a visual inspection was carried out on the buildings behind Wicklow Town Courthouse, and the Courts Service were advised that these buildings were in a serious state of disrepair.

The responsibility for the maintenance of the buildings behind Wicklow Town Courthouse remains with the Courts Service, with OPW providing professional services as required.
