The old jail "was in use from 1885-1978. Now it's a museum,
located right across from the court house in downtown Granbury."

First off I would
like to say I really do like your web site. Here are some pictures
of the old Granbury Jail House which is in Hood County and was in
use from 1885 – 1978. Now the old jail house is a museum and it is
located right across from the court house in downtown Granbury. -
Thanks. Scott Shelby, January 09, 2004
