Town Hall, Grade II listed town hall in Oldham, England
The Old Town Hall features a Greek revival architectural style with a tetrastyle Ionic portico and stands prominently on Yorkshire Street in central Oldham.
The building, completed in 1841 under architect George Woodhouse's design, served as headquarters for the Municipal Borough of Oldham from 1849 to 1977.
Winston Churchill delivered his first acceptance speech from the town hall steps in 1900 when elected as Conservative Member of Parliament.
Following a £32.5 million renovation completed in 2016, the building now functions as an Odeon multiplex cinema with integrated dining facilities.
Several owl figures decorate the top of the structure, while a modern glass light-box extension on Clegg Street creates a contemporary entrance.
