Sutton Coldfield Town Hall, Town hall in Sutton Coldfield, England
Sutton Coldfield Town Hall is a stone structure featuring Edwardian design with a distinctive clock tower located on Upper Clifton Road. The building contains multiple meeting rooms and assembly halls used for various events and gatherings.
The building was originally constructed as the Royal Hotel in 1865 before being purchased by Sutton Corporation in 1901. It underwent conversion into a town hall by 1906 and has served as the civic centre ever since.
This building serves as a gathering place for performances and community events throughout the year. Visitors experience local theatre, music, and celebrations that bring townspeople together regularly.
The building is easily located on Upper Clifton Road in the town centre. It is best visited during daytime hours when events or tours are available and the interior is accessible to the public.
The prominent clock tower once served as a hose drying tower and ventilation shaft for the fire headquarters that operated inside the building. This practical feature reveals how the structure originally housed a different essential service before its transformation.
