1859 – Town Hall, Coleraine, Co. Derry

Designed by Thomas Turner, the Town Hall was built in 1859 by McLaughlin & Harvey for the then large sum of £4,147, with The Honourable the Irish Society contributing £2,500. It replaced the Market House built in 1743 by The Honourable the Irish Society. In 1902 a new Stairway and doorway at the eastern end increased available space. Under the tower the western door was permanently closed and converted to a window. Inside the Town Hall is a superb stained-glass window commemorating The Honourable the Irish Society. Designed and manufactured by Campbell Bros of Belfast, it features the Irish Society School, Salmon Leap, Old Parish Church and the old Market House.
