- Description
- A two story stone building to the rear of Castle Street, approached by an arched entrance through the buildings fronting the street. A model brick extension provides an entrance porch with toilet facilities at the side of the building. There is a painted sign over the street entrance, and a larger sign across the frontage of the extension. There also appears to be a brass plaque on the inside wall of the extension, but this was obscured by signage relating to the use of the Hall as a Polling Station on the day of the visit - and interior photography was forbidden.
