Stoke Town Hall is the largest of the Potteries' old municipal buildings. It was designed in the classical style by Henry Wardand construction began in 1834, though the south wing still remained unfinished in 1850.
The nineteen-bay frontage is faced entirely in ashlars (large square-cut thin slabs of stone used for facing walls [Latin axis board]); its central feature incorporates a giant upper portico of unfluted Ionic columns, with a heavy attic piled above. The middle portion, originally a market hall, was rebuilt in 1888 to house the Council Chamber, Mayor's Parlour and municipal offices of the Borough.
