*************

Norwich Guildhall is a municipal building on Gaol Hill in the city of Norwich, United Kingdom. It is a Grade I listed building.[1]

The guildhall was commissioned after King Henry IV awarded a charter to the City of Norwich giving it autonomy from the county of Norfolk.[2] The building, which was quickly established as the new local seat of city government, was built between 1407 and 1413.[3] The roof of the council chamber collapsed in 1511 and had to be replaced in 1537.[4] A large porch, designed by Thomas Barry, the City Surveyor, was added to the south side of the building in 1861.[1]

Civic affairs were conducted in the building until 1938, when the new City Hall was opened. Magistrates' courts continued to be held in the old Common Council Chamber until 1977 and prisoners were held in the building until 1980.[5] Work to restore and strengthen the Guildhall clock tower began in July 2010.[6][7]

It is one of the 12 historic Norwich buildings in the Norwich 12 initiative, a project to develop an integrated group of heritage attractions in Norwich.[8][9]
