Description
The Town Hall with shops beneath, dated 1887, was designed by F. Emily. The building features an ashlar ground floor, tower, and dressings, with a snecked stone first floor and a graduated Lakeland slate roof. It is designed in the English Renaissance style and consists of two storeys with five bays, including a central three-stage tower. The tower entrance has a keyed arch with shields above and an egg-and-dart cornice. The second and third stages of the tower have a broad central panel with scrolled bracket feet that support mullioned-and-transomed windows. There are elaborate carved figures and ornamentation above the windows, and a cornice below a stepped gable that includes two slits, a carved flagpole bracket, a date panel, and ornamental finials.
The flanking sections of the building feature keyed arches at either end and shopfronts with arched central panes, except for the fourth bay, which is rusticated and has an arched window and doorway. The first floor is adorned with large Ipswich oriels, and the building has coped gables with ornamental finials and two corniced ridge stacks.
