Guildhall Including Great Hall, Assize Courts And Former City Treasury, Gothic Revival town hall in Plymouth, England.

The Plymouth Guildhall features an octagonal tower on the west front and a square tower that rises to 50 meters in height.

Completed in 1874, this fifth iteration of Plymouth's Guildhall suffered extensive damage during the 1941 Plymouth Blitz before reopening in 1959.

The Great Hall contains fourteen stained glass windows depicting major events in Plymouth's history and includes a pipe organ by Henry Willis & Sons.

The building serves multiple functions, hosting graduations, award ceremonies, and weddings in its spacious Great Hall throughout the year.

The structure narrowly escaped demolition in 1951 when a proposal to remove it as part of a new city plan was defeated by vote.
