County Hall, Grade II* listed municipal building in Kingston upon Thames, England.
County Hall stands on Penrhyn Road with a classical design featuring a prominent clock tower, belfry, and seven-bay frontage facing the street.
The structure, completed in 1893, served as the headquarters for Surrey County Council until 2020, when operations relocated to Woodhatch Place in Reigate.
The building contains notable artworks, including 18th-century portraits of King George III and Queen Charlotte created by painter Allan Ramsay.
Following its 2021 acquisition by RER London, the building undergoes transformation into a mixed-use development with residential units and community spaces.
During World War II, the Ashcombe Block suffered damage from a flying bomb in July 1944, leading to its reconstruction in 1953.
