26 27down tolbooth(4 4)?o?n ?a?l cannotdecide whether the answer is town hall or town jail.

Hi Penquin,

tolbooth or tollbooth noun 1 an office where tolls are or were collected. 2 old Scots a town hall. 3 old Scots a prison.

You pay your money and you take your choice - my favourite would be TOWN HALL as tolls are more likely to be collected there than in a prison - not that I have any personal experience of the latter!!!

Blessings,

maybe with this being a Scots newspaper the answer could be the latter

Thanks Colin and Andy makes the score one each guess I might have to spin a coin.

If its jail...it could also be gaol - which is why I think its hall!

Town hall is a phrase in common use and appears in the dictionary; town jail less so.

Thanks to all spun coin came down jail
