Worksop Town Hall

Image: © Alan Murray-Rust Taken: 4 Oct 2015

Built in 1851 as the Corn Exchange, it was purchased in 1882 by the Local Board of Health which became Worksop Urban District Council in 1894, whereupon it became the Town Hall. There was originally a flight of steps up to doors in the 3 central openings, but these were removed when the new council offices were built and access to the hall is now through these. The palladian style window in the side wall is a modern insertion replacing number of non-original windows. Listed Grade II. There is a flush bracket bench mark http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4690645 below the right hand window of the main façade.
