Waltham Forest Town Hall


Waltham Forest Town Hall (formerly Walthamstow Town Hall) is a Town Hall located in Walthamstow, East London. The building is of stripped classical 20th-century architecture. Walthamstow Town Hall was designed and built by Philip Dalton Hepworth in 1941.〔Oxford University Press (1973) The Victoria History of the counties of England. Vol. 6. London: University of London〕 The Town Hall is made of Portland stone and influenced by Swedish buildings of the interwar period. Although it now has Grade II Listed Building status, it's not frozen in time. It plays an important role for the population of the borough.〔http://hidden-london.com/nuggets/walthamstow-town-hall/〕 The assembly rooms on the sides have hosted concerts by notable artists such as Placido Domingo and Yehudi Menuhin.Beneath the coat of arms foundation stone (laid in 1983) there is a time capsule of plans and keepsakes, so in generations to come people can have an insight into the lives of people in the borough before war.〔http://londonist.com/2012/08/top-10-things-to-do-in-the-borough-of-waltham-forest.php〕
== Architecture ==
In 1929 the newly created municipal borough of Walthamstow launched an architectural design competition for its headquarters, to be built on the site of Chestnuts Farm (also known as Clay Farm).
The competition attracted 70 entries and was won in 1932 by Philip Dalton Hepworth, who had studied in London, Paris and Rome but was also aware of the contemporary Swedish trend towards simplified Nordic Classicism with art deco details. Hepworth was at the time best known for some stylish residential creations but his subsequent projects included churches, a county hall for Wiltshire and the designs for numerous war cemeteries.
Hepworth died in 1963.
