Following an award-winning external restoration of both the Grade II Listed Town Hall (including a new Changing Places toilet facility) and Library, undertaken as a “design and build” project by a contractor appointed through the Constructing West Midlands framework and which was overseen by Sandwell Council’s Urban Design and Building Services (UDBS), work has been carried out internally to refresh the original Council Chamber, together with some of the Meeting Rooms and Toilets. A wheelchair platform stairlift has been installed to provide access to the Council Chamber for disabled visitors and induction loops have been fitted to some areas.
The external restoration has received the 2024 Conservation Award from the Victorian Society’s Birmingham and West Midlands Group and has also been shortlisted in the sustainability category of the 2025 Brick Awards.
The Town Hall will be available to hire from September 2025 onwards. Whether you’re planning a corporate function, commercial event, or private celebration, the newly refurbished space offers a versatile setting for a wide range of occasions.
