Cheese Market, Hay-on-Wye, Town hall in Hay-on-Wye, United Kingdom.
The neoclassical building on Market Street features three bays with Doric columns and an asymmetrical main front constructed from ashlar stone.
The structure, completed in 1835 by Sir Joseph Bailey, replaced a 17th-century market hall that had fallen into disrepair in the town center.
The assembly room served as a location for Catholic Mass services from 1926 until 1967, when St Joseph's Church opened its doors.
The ground floor maintains its public function while the first floor assembly room has been converted into holiday accommodation following restoration work.
A mosaic created with 900 sponsored tiles depicting the history of Hay-on-Wye decorates an internal wall of the ground floor.
