With the town's War Memorial Image in front. Sale Urban District Council was formed in 1894 and Ashton-on-Mersey UDC the following year. Sale and Ashton UDCs merged as Sale UDC in 1930 which, in turn, became Sale Borough Council five years later. Sale Town Hall, built in 1914, was extended in 1939/40 but in December, 1940, it was badly damaged by a German incendiary bomb. It was not fully rebuilt until 1952. It has since been included in the extended and award winning Sale Waterside complex which provides a waterside plaza area and enhanced community facilities including the Waterside Arts Centre and Robert Bolt Theatre.
