Description

The Town House, formerly known as No. 13 Royal Oak Public House, is a disused public house located on King Edward Street in Macclesfield. It was built in the early 19th century and is constructed of brick with a concrete-tiled roof. The building stands three stories high and features a three-window range with a central entrance. The entrance consists of a six-panelled door set within a steep pedimented case. The flanking windows have been renewed but remain in their original openings, which have flat-arched brick heads and stone sills. The building also has end wall stacks.
