This building, designed by Edward George Bruton in the Gothic Revival style and built by Chesterman Brothers of Abingdon, was completed in October 1854 and is the fourth town hall building built in Banbury town from 1590 onwards.

The design involved a symmetrical main frontage with three bays facing the junction of the High Street and Market Place; the central section, which projected forward, featured an arched doorway on the ground floor and a balcony with an ogee headed window on the first floor. A clock tower and spire were added in 1860.

The principal room was an assembly hall on the first floor. The building was extended to the south west to create a council chamber in 1891.

The town hall was the headquarters of Banbury Borough Council until the council moved its administration to the mechanics' institute in Marlborough Road in 1930.

Designed by Edward Bruton in 1854, Banbury Town Hall is a magnificent Gothic-style building in the town centre. It was once used as a police station and cells still exist in the building. However, the prisoners are gone today and the town hall is now used for weddings and conferences.
