Photograph at the Tolbooth, Dunblane black plaque

Tolbooth and Market Cross The Tolbooth was built near here in 1650 and was demolished in 1842. It was the administrative centre of the town where the Baillie heard cases of unfair trading, poaching and assault. The Tolbooth also housed the gaol and at the front, the market cross was used for public proclamations.
