Background

The Lynn County Courthouse, on Public Square in Tahoka, Texas in the High Plains region of Texas south of Lubbock, Texas, was built in 1916. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. It was deemed to be "an outstanding example of the type of public architecture that appeared on the South Plains during the region's formative years." The listing included two contributing buildings: the courthouse, which included a jail when built in 1916, and a separate small jail building constructed in the 1960s. The courthouse is a three-story reinforced concrete structure with red brick veneer, designed in Classical Revival style by architect W.M. Rice. Its facade includes terra cotta, and was built by A.Z. Rodgers.
