Tower Hamlets Town Hall, the headquarters for the London Borough of Tower Hamlets Council, encompasses the restoration of the Grade II listed former Royal London Hospital building, and the addition of a new build extension. The move to the former hospital site brings council’s offices into one location and offers services to the borough’s residents, in a more accessible location. During the tours you will hear more about the design of the building’s public spaces and also have a chance to see parts of the building not normally open to the public including an old operating theatre that is now a meeting space.
