List of city and town halls in Northern Ireland

Last updated

This is a list of city and town halls in Northern Ireland. The list is sortable by building age and height and provides a link to the listing description where relevant. The list, which was compiled using the list of 1,000 Largest Cities and Towns in the UK by Population, published by The Geographist, to ensure completeness, [1] includes nearly 30 surviving buildings. Notable examples of buildings which have not survived include Strabane Town Hall. [2] The oldest purpose-built town hall is Donaghadee Town Hall, thought to have been completed in around 1770. [3] The tallest is Belfast City Hall which has a dome which rises to 173 feet (53 m). [4]
