The Old Town Hall is the only surviving purpose-built Victorian town hall in Tyne and Wear and is one of only five comparable listed Victorian town halls in the North East. The Grade II listed building was the council headquarters for almost 120 years, before the council chamber, civic suite and most council offices were relocated to the new Civic Centre in 1987. The building has latterly been in use by a number of mainly social and cultural sector bodies.
