Storm history around an 1881 courthouse square
Pittsboro's courthouse, built in 1881 and restored in 2013, has stood through well over a century of Piedmont storms, and the mature trees shading the square today have grown up alongside it.
Gutter capacity near Pittsboro's shaded courthouse square
Properties near the courthouse square typically deal with heavier leaf debris from long-established shade trees than newer parts of Chatham County, so gutter guards are often worth the added cost downtown even where they'd be optional elsewhere.
