Newcastle upon Tyne, England NE1 3

The Guildhall in Newcastle upon Tyne is a significant Grade I listed civic building that has roots dating back to the early 15th century. Designed by Robert Trollope and completed in 1655, it has undergone various architectural transformations, including classical re-fronting in the 19th century.

Historically, the guildhall has been vital to local governance, serving as a court and the meeting place for Newcastle Town Council until 1863. Inside, it features a grand main hall, the elaborate Merchant Venturers' Court, and an array of paintings depicting local scenes by George Bouchier Richardson.
