Ashton Under Lyne Town Hall, Grade II listed civic building in Tameside, England.
The Neoclassical structure on Katherine Street features seven bays, a symmetrical frontage, and prominent Corinthian columns supporting an inscribed entablature.
Architect Charles Lee designed the town hall, completed in 1840, with William Young extending the western section in 1878 to accommodate growing administrative needs.
The building contained the Museum of the Manchester Regiment from 1987 to 2016, displaying military artifacts including six Victoria Cross medals.
Located at coordinates 53.489855, -2.093676, the town hall stands in central Ashton-under-Lyne and maintains regular opening hours for public access.
Two Turkish guns captured during the 1897 Greco-Turkish War replaced the former Russian Crimean War cannons that were melted down during World War II.
