Photograph of Newton County Courthouse in Newton, TX. The courthouse sits on a green lawn and is partially obscured by the foliage of tall trees planted throughout the lawn. The building is made of orange stone with white tiles on for the roofing and includes a tall clock tower at its top. The entrance of the building faces the left side of the photo and has two white doors shadowed by a balcony, above which is a column of three sets of windows. The entire building has four rows of windows spanning the width of its sides, with the topmost row of windows projecting out from the roof slightly. The clocktower on the roof sits on a short sloping base and has rectangular columns that hold up the tall sloping top of the tower, which has a white clock set into each of its sides.
