The Old Town Hall (Broken Hill, Far West New South Wales)

            Broken Hill was declared a municipality in September 1888 and the first council meeting was held in a wooden building on the current town hall site in December 1888. The iconic town hall was designed by Adelaide architects Whitall and Wells in the South Australian Italianate style using stone from the Block 14 Mine. The foundation stone was laid by Sir Henry Parkes in April 1890. The large hall at the rear was demolished in 1974 following the erection of a new civic centre, and the facade was restored in 1976.
