Much Wenlock Guildhall, Grade II* listed town hall in Much Wenlock, England.

The timber-framed guildhall stands with three large gables on Wilmore Street, featuring tall mullion windows and a central market area on the ground floor.

The building was constructed in two phases, with the south court room completed in 1540 and the north council chamber finished in 1557 after Wenlock Priory's dissolution.

The council chamber contains Jacobean paneling from 1848 and the courtroom displays the Royal Coat of Arms installed during Elizabeth I's reign in 1589.

From April to October, visitors can enter the main rooms without charge and examine the ground floor's historical stocks and whipping post.

The council chamber features a memorial board with a clock commemorating 16 Allied airmen who died in crashes within Wenlock Borough during World War II.
