Guildhall, Kingston upon Hull, Grade II* listed town hall in Kingston upon Hull, England

The Guildhall spans across Alfred Gelder Street with a central element flanked by two long colonnades and pavilions at each end.

Built between 1906 and 1914 by Quibell, Son & Green of Hull, this structure replaced three previous guildhalls, with the earliest dating back to 1333.

The interior features a Grand Staircase adorned with a statue of King Edward I, who granted the city its first charter in 1299.

The building opens Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, offering facilities for conferences, civic receptions, and formal dinners.

The clock tower houses a time ball mechanism, restored in 2021, which helped ship navigators verify their marine chronometers in the past.
