Stornoway Town Hall, Gothic Revival town hall in Stornoway, Scotland
The building features a symmetrical frontage with turreted bays and a central clock tower topped by a decorative cupola at South Beach.
The Earl of Rosebery inaugurated the town hall in 1905, but a fire in 1918 required complete reconstruction, which was finished in 1929.
The structure contains a principal public hall with fourteen roof lights and stained glass windows that illuminate community gatherings and events.
The building underwent a £2.1 million renovation in 2012, adding modern facilities while maintaining the original architectural elements.
The clock tower earned recognition through its mention in the 1960s musical composition 'Lovely Stornoway' by Calum Kennedy.
