A suitably grand expression of civic pride, designed by Thomas Worthington and built in 1867-73. Plenty of Gothic windows, and a monumental tower and smaller chimney or turret (the latter seen to better effect here: Image]). The tower is characteristic of Worthington, e.g. see also Image Grade II* listed.
