Durham Town Hall

Durham Town Hall was built in 1850 after the guildhall became too small.  The design of Durham Town Hall was modelled on Westminster Hall in London.  Durham Town Hall features an impressive hammer beam roof as well as breathtaking stained glass windows, heraldic symbols, paintings and a magnificent fireplace made from local stone quarried from the hills of County Durham.
