Town Hall, Grade II* listed municipal building in Tamworth, England

The Town Hall stands with red brick walls and stone dressings, featuring a ground floor arcade supported by eighteen Doric columns and round-headed windows on the first floor.

Thomas Guy, a local Member of Parliament, funded the construction of this neoclassical structure in 1701, replacing a medieval building that previously stood at Market Street.

The assembly hall on the first floor has hosted numerous civic ceremonies, council meetings, and public gatherings since the first official meeting in July 1702.

The building maintains its function as the headquarters of Tamworth Borough Council, with regular access for administrative purposes and scheduled public meetings throughout the year.

A hexagonal louvre adorns the hipped tile roof, crowned by an ogival cupola and weathervane that marks this center of local governance.
