Thaxted Guildhall, Medieval town hall in Thaxted, England.
The timber-framed building extends over the pavement on three sides and features four gothic windows with a central oak post supporting the structure.
Built between 1390 and 1410, the Guildhall received its Grade I listed status in 1967, marking its importance in English architectural preservation.
The first-floor meeting hall hosted guild gatherings and town assemblies, while the ground floor served as a marketplace for local commerce.
The building maintains its function as a civic center and includes a museum displaying photographs and artifacts that document Thaxted's development.
The structure contains an original village lock-up called the 'old cage,' complete with barred window grates and its initial doorway.
