Glebe Town Hall, Victorian Italianate town hall in Glebe, Australia
The Glebe Town Hall rises on St Johns Road with a central clock tower, broad steps leading to a portico, and symmetrical windows across its facade.
Constructed in 1880 by architect Ambrose Thornley, the building served as the seat of Glebe Municipal Council until 1948 when it became a community center.
The main foyer contains a memorial plaque installed in 1916 to honor local residents who perished during World War I.
Following extensive renovations completed in 2013, the building offers modern facilities while maintaining its nineteenth-century architectural features.
The clock adorning the facade was donated by Sir George Wigram Allen, who served as the first Mayor of Glebe for eighteen consecutive terms.
