For High Street Heritage Action Zone and The Guildhall Newport Research Project HSLSE17. Photographer's note: 'The Guildhall in Newport was built in 1814-16 to a design by the architect John Nash. It originally housed the borough’s civic and judicial functions and a market. There have been several phases of alterations and extensions, notably in 1887-8 when a clock tower was added and in 1967-8 when the building was extended and its interior adapted for use as court rooms. Since 1996 it has been in use as the Museum of Island History, offices and storage for the museum and archive.'
