Croydon Town Hall, Victorian town hall in Katharine Street, London Borough of Croydon, United Kingdom.

The red brick building features a symmetrical main frontage with nine bays, arched porch, and segmented windows across three floors.

Completed in 1896, the current town hall replaced two previous structures, with the first dating back to 1566 and serving as both market house and council building.

The building houses the Croydon Clocktower arts venue, which includes exhibition spaces, performance areas, and a public library established in the 1990s.

The town hall maintains its role as headquarters for Croydon London Borough Council, hosting regular meetings and administrative functions throughout the year.

A 176-foot clock tower contains bells crafted by local firm Gillett & Johnston, with keystones depicting faces representing compass cardinal points.
