Batley Town Hall, Grade II listed town hall in Market Place, Batley, England.

The building displays a neoclassical design with seven bays facing Market Place, featuring Ionic columns and a prominent pediment at roof level.

Constructed in 1854 as a mechanics' institute through public subscription, the structure became the municipal borough council headquarters in 1874.

The assembly hall on the first floor continues to function as a venue for community concerts and theatrical productions since its inception.

The town hall remains accessible to visitors and maintains its role as a municipal facility, with regular opening hours for public services.

After surviving a substantial fire in 1902, the building received additions including a council chamber and mayor's parlour rather than being rebuilt.
