The old Gates County Courthouse. The building now houses the
Gates County Public Library.
Donations are urgently needed to save the courthouse. As you
can see, the west wall of the front section is in bad shape and
major restoration is needed to keep this historical treasure.
Currently there are temporary measures being taken to reinforce
the wall to prevent further decline. Please consider making a
donation to the Gates
County Historical Society to help with restoration before
it is too late. To find out how contact the GCHS:
