County Hall

County Hall is a five-story administrative building with black slate roofing situated beside the former Bute East Dock in the Atlantic Wharf area. The structure contains council chambers, committee rooms, and function suites within its design.

The building opened in 1988, replacing outdated administrative facilities previously housed on Newport Road. Its design followed J.R.C. Bethell's plans and reflected Cardiff's evolving approach to municipal infrastructure needs.

The building serves as an administrative hub where regular council meetings take place and residents engage with local governance on matters affecting their community.

The building is easily accessible from the Atlantic Wharf area with clear entrance signage for visitors. It operates during standard business hours on weekdays, so plan your visit accordingly if you need to meet with officials.

The building includes function suites with capacity for up to 300 people, available for various public gatherings and events. Within it operates a control room that monitors multiple locations across the city.
