1826 Guild Hall. Courtroom with gallery at first floor. Council chamber. Mayor's room at ground floor. Civic building adjacent to pannier market at core of conservation area. Repairs required to architectural detailing on exterior; difficult junction with C20 first floor extension and pannier market makes maintenance in this area difficult. Structural movement of galleries currently unresolved. Uses restricted due to fixed furniture and layout, although potential improvements under discussion.
