Hornsey Town Hall.

Hornsey Town Hall is a public building in Crouch End area of Hornsey, London. Designed by architect Reginald Uren 1933-1935, the building shows the influence of the town hall in Hilversum, Holland and was awarded a bronze medal by the Royal Institute of British Architects. It has grade II* listed status. The building was used by Hornsey Borough Council.

When the former area of the Municipal Borough of Hornsey became part of the London Borough of Haringey most of the administrative functions were re-located at Wood Green. As a result the building has fallen into disrepair, although steps are finally been taken to find new use for this outstanding building.
