An early C19 town hall in Wick, Caithness, built in 1828 to replace an earlier building. It has subsequently been further extended.
A photographic survey of the building, in conjunction with a condition and conservation assessment, was carried out in 2012 to support and inform a planning application for the insertion of a new lift and other structural, repair and modernisation works. <1> <2> <3>
