The Town Buildings, also known as the Municipal Buildings, are in Fore Street, Port Glasgow, Scotland. The structure, which served as the meeting place of Port Glasgow Burgh Council, is a Category A listed building.
The first municipal building in the town, which was originally known as Newark, was a tolbooth, which was completed in the late 17th century. Following significant population growth, largely associated with the status of Port Glasgow as a seaport, the area became a police burgh in 1803. By that time, the tolbooth had become dilapidated and the burgh commissioners decided to raise money, by public subscription, to erect a new structure.
