County Hall, Cwmbran, Government facility in Croesyceiliog, Cwmbran, Wales.
The County Hall consisted of two wings with continuous bands of glazing and concrete panels, including a low-rise council chamber and basement bunker.
Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother inaugurated this municipal facility in April 1978, which operated as Gwent County Council headquarters until 1996.
The building represented the administrative evolution of Welsh local government, serving as a central location for council meetings and community services.
The structure accommodated 500 staff members, 88 council representatives, and maintained parking facilities for 200 vehicles during its operational period.
Due to concrete cancer affecting its structural integrity, the building required a £30 million repair estimate, leading to its closure and demolition in 2013.
