Town Hall from the Water Gardens

Image: © Penny Mayes Taken: 1 Jan 1971

The original town hall, designed by Sir Frederick Gibberd who planned the new town development in 1947. I believe this building was demolished in the early 21st century. In 1971 it was visible from just about everywhere in the new town and marked the position of The High.
