Bishop Auckland Town Hall is a Grade II * listed building〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.imagesofengland.org.uk/details/default.aspx?id=385723 )〕 located in the town of Bishop Auckland, Co Durham, England. The building was completed in 1862 and is a "Gothic style" Victorian Building overlooking the town's market place. The town hall was designed by John Philpott Jones for Bishop Auckland Town Hall and Market Company Ltd. The money to build it was raised privately by the issue of shares in the company. It was then bought by the local board of health in 1888, which went on to become Bishop Auckland Urban District council in 1894. 〔〔(BATH About Us History )〕 It was abandoned and then condemned for demolition in the 1980s; however, after a local campaign to save the building, it was fully restored in the early 1990s. The building now houses Bishop Auckland's main public library, a theatre, an art gallery, tourist information centre and a café-bar. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bishop Auckland Town Hall」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
