Description
- Architect: Cuthbert Brodrick

- Constructor: Samuel Atack

- In 1853, the town council of Leeds chose Cuthbert Brodrick's design for the new town hall, but without the tower.

- The town hall building is no longer the seat of the municipal government, the offices having been moved to the Civic Hall in 1933, and it is used for such things as concerts and banquets.
