Prestwick Burgh Hall, also known as Prestwick Freeman's Hall and Prestwick Freemen's Hall, is a municipal building in Kirk Street, Prestwick, Scotland. The structure, which served as the meeting place of Prestwick Burgh Council, is a Category B listed building.
The first municipal building in Prestwick was an early 18th century tolbooth. The tolbooth was used as the offices and meeting place of the chancellor and the two bailies who administered the town: they were elected annually by the 36 freemen of the burgh who owned 1,000 acres of land in and around the town. The current building was commissioned by the freemen of Prestwick for use as the local burgh school. It was designed in the Gothic Revival style, built in ashlar stone and was completed in 1837.
