Symmetrical, Romanesque Revival, three-storey, red-brick Town Hall, with ornate sandstone trim, and having central, gabled block and off-centre (altered) clock-tower (c. 1890). Newer, two-storey wings exist to north and south (1985). See also Designation description.

Ground Floor – Five, original, broad, round-headed arches in alternative large and small rhythms, with central entry. Deep, rustic stone voussoirs have imposts and hood-mouldings at larger arches only. Brick spandrels have upper, plain stone band-course, and small stone cornice crowns this level. Outer arches, including north and south returns, have (replacement) wooden coffering at low-level, three, single-pane sashes, and Diocoletian upper windows filled with multiple-pane, wood-frame (replacement) glazing. Smaller apertures are similar, but with two sashes only. Newer, north and south additions also have similar treatments, but with less robust elements. Concrete base is plainly visible below panelling at all windows.

Second Floor – Central block, in red brick and with small corner turret at south end, is capped with deep, rock-faced stone bank comprising also window lintels. Five windows, including central group of three, have lower double-hung 1/1 (replacement) wooden windows under rock-faced transoms, and with single-pane transom window above. North and south wings are similar, with three bays each, and with simple, stepped wooden cornice below eaves. Newer additions to north and south are also similar, with deep ashlar lintels and band-course above similar grouping of windows. Aside from central block, walls end with stepped, architrave-like metal flashing, rising higher at flat-roofed, north and south additions.

Third Floor – Central block ends is crowned with pediment with broached-ashlar copings keyed into brickwork below. Copings are built off metal cornice at LH side, and rounded, stone pinnacle at RH side and rise to small ashlar pediment at peak. Three round-headed apertures, with taller central aperture, are set above central second-floor windows. Recessed plane of masonry below each window has stacked brick corbels supporting continuous rock-faced stone sill. Round-headed windows are again (replacement) wooden 1/1 type.

Cornice and Roof - At north and south wings, tall, asphalt-shingled Mansard roofs rise above heavily profiled, cornice-like, wall-head gutter. Stepped metal flashing at flat-roof above has additional, newer, pre-painted metal flashing in conspicuously dark colour. RH side pitch contains tall, flat-roofed dormer with shingled cheeks, and unusual, 3/1 window.

Tower – Asymmetrically placed red-brick tower, with oddly small, rusticated stone quoins, rises from ground level in location slightly behind and south of RH corner of central bay. Group of three small, 1/1 windows, with flat-arch lintels having long, rubbed-brick voussoirs and with heavy, rock-faces stone sills, are set at Mansard roof level. Projecting brick panel above, on flat brick corbels, has rock-faced sill projecting from adjacent stone band-course. Concrete slab at bell platform, and metal railing, are recent, as is flat lintel above (hidden by more modern bricks). This area of tower immediately below clock is rather awkward. Peripheral, plain, rendered frame of clock has typical, coursed brickwork below and brick voussoirs above. Tower masonry ends with small, brick pediments at each side, with stone copings rising from decorative coils buttressed by robust, ball-type pinnacles over similar copings, and with stubby engaged columns at outer corners. Battened copper roof at spire rises to profiled and bell-cast, copper-clad cap at peak.
