The offices of Reigate and Banstead Borough Council in Castlefield Road, dating from 1901. The building was designed by the architects Hugh Macintosh and Reginald Newman. It was originally known as the Municipal Buildings, housing the Town Hall (which was in the nearest section of the building in this photo), the police station and court house (at the far end) and fire station (off the left of this photo - see Image). The police station is now in Reigate Road (see Image), having first moved to Cherchefelle (see Image) then, the courts are now in Hatchlands Road (see Image) and the fire station in Croydon Road (see Image), leaving the local council, now expanded from the original Borough of Reigate, as the sole occupant since 1974. The building is grade II listed - see www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1260489.
