Hanley Town Hall, Municipal building in Hanley, England
The red brick town hall on Albion Street features nine bays with projecting pavilions, rusticated white brick pilasters, and an ashlar porch with paired columns.
Originally constructed as the Queen's Hotel in 1869, the building transformed into the town hall between 1884 and 1888 after the hotel company faced financial difficulties.
The town hall contains a memorial plaque dedicated to Captain Edward Smith of the RMS Titanic, who was born in Hanley.
The structure operated as a courthouse and register office for many years until the crown court relocated to the Stoke-on-Trent Combined Court Centre in 1991.
A bronze war memorial stands outside the building, unveiled in 1922 by the widow of former mayor Major Cecil Wedgwood to honor local First World War soldiers.
