Islington Town Hall

Islington Town Hall is a Grade II listed administrative building in the London Borough of Islington. It features a symmetrical stone facade with Corinthian columns and a grand entrance portico facing Upper Street.

The building was first constructed in 1922 to replace the aging Victorian vestry hall that had served the area. Its development happened in stages, with the rear wing completed before the main sections.

The building serves as a center for local weddings and public celebrations in Islington. Residents and visitors gather here for civic ceremonies that mark important moments in community life.

The building is open on weekdays and has facilities to help visitors with mobility needs. A nearby Underground station makes getting there straightforward without needing a car.

A nuclear fallout shelter was built under the building during the 1980s to protect local officials. This underground space reflects the security concerns of that era.
