Ayr Courthouse is a single-storeyed red brick building constructed in 1935. The gabled and half-gabled roof is clad in corrugated steel and is surmounted by a painted copper spire.
The roof's original russet-coloured fibro cement slates, have been replaced over time with corrugated steel sheeting. The wide verandahs on four sides have timber balustrading and paired posts on brick piers. The entrance portico is marked with a decorative parapet.
The courthouse is one of several buildings contributing to the town's civic precinct in the main street, Queen Street. The police station, courthouse, town hall, library and post office dominate the north-west side of Queen Street between Mackenzie and Young Streets.
