Outlined in the paving on Market Street is the location of St Andrews' former tolbooth (the Scottish equivalent of a town hall). We do not know precisely when St Andrews’ tolbooth was built, but recent archaeological excavation suggests the site has been used by people since the twelfth century. The tolbooth underwent a number of major renovations and was almost completely rebuilt in the sixteenth century. As in other Scottish towns, the tolbooth was a meeting place for the local council and community. It also acted as a prison. St Andrews' tolbooth was eventually demolished in the 1860s as it was regarded as an obstruction to traffic. 市场街上有圣安德鲁斯从前的镇政府(tolbooth为苏格兰英语等同于镇政府)。我们并不清楚得知道圣安德鲁斯镇政府是什么时候建成的, 但最近的考古发掘证实这个场所自十二世纪起就有人使用了。圣安德鲁斯镇政府经历了许多次修缮并且在16世纪几乎完全重建。和其他的苏格兰城镇一样, 镇政府是本地议会和社区开会的地方。此外，它还被当做监狱。在1860年代， 圣安德鲁斯镇政府被最终拆除, 理由是它阻碍了交通。 Audio - Elizabeth Rhodes on the reformation that took place in St Andrews in 1559 音频 - 伊丽莎白·罗兹讲述发生在1559年的圣安德鲁斯的宗教改革 Video - Panoramic view of the Toolbooth, reconstructed by Open Virtual Worlds Group 视频 - 镇政府的虚拟全景 - 由开放虚拟世界组制作
