North Lincolnshire Council Offices Formerly Scunthorpe Civic Centre

The North Lincolnshire Council Offices, formerly known as Scunthorpe Civic Centre, is a civic building designed by Charles B. Pearson, Son and Partners and constructed between 1960 and 1962. The building features a council chamber, associated suite, and local government offices. The council chamber is clad in white ashlar facing panels and has a copper-clad roof light. The office section is built with a concrete-cased steel frame, blue/grey slate cladding, hardwood double-glazed windows, light-grey steel panels, and light buff brickwork.

The structure has an L-shaped plan, with the entrance located in the link between the council chamber on the right and the office block on the left. The two-storey east wing houses the council chamber on the ground floor and committee rooms on both the ground and first floors. The north wing is four storeys tall, plus a basement, and contains offices. There is also a restaurant from the 1980s situated in the angle between the two blocks.

The council chamber has a horseshoe plan and is partly exposed to the south behind the continuation of the structural framework, while being surrounded on the north and east by committee rooms. The office block showcases a regular grid of structure, fenestration, and infill panels, with the top floor featuring exposed framework partly filled with accommodation and a public viewing area. The building is noted for its high-quality materials, most of which are original and representative of the period.

Inside, the corridor leading to the council suite has mirror glass walls, and the entrance hall displays a Romano-British mosaic titled "Ceres" from Winterton on the north wall, along with the civic coat of arms made from various metals on the east wall. The design is innovative, emphasizing informality in both its layout and modern style. Uniquely, the council chamber is located at ground floor level, close to the entrance, without a formal processional route. The building is set within a well-landscaped park.
