}}The Guildhall is an important civic building in Newcastle upon Tyne. It is a Grade I listed building.[1]

History

The building was designed by Robert Trollope and completed in 1655.[1] It replaced an earlier facility damaged by fire in 1639.[2] The frontage was rebuilt to designs by William Newton and David Stephenson in 1794.[1] The east end of the building is an extension designed by John Dobson and completed in 1823.[1] The south side is in a classical style and was designed by John and William Stokoe in 1809.[3] The main room is 92 feet long and 30 feet broad.[4] The mayor and sheriff were allowed to hold borough courts there.[5] It was also the meeting place of Newcastle Town Council[6] until 1863 when it re-located to Newcastle Town Hall in St Nicholas Square.[7]
