https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stratford_Town_Hall
2025: "The foundation stone for an extension along West Ham Lane was laid by the chairman of the local board, George Rivett, in 1885; the extension, which was also designed by Lewis Angell, was intended to accommodate a courthouse and cells.[6] The building became the headquarters of the new Municipal Borough of West Ham in 1886[10][11] and, after becoming the centre of administration for the County Borough of West Ham in 1889,[2] it became the home of the first Labour Party municipal administration in 1898.[4]
The town hall continued to be the home of the county borough for much of the 20th century but ceased to be the local seat of government after the formation of the London Borough of Newham in April 1965.[12] It continued to serve as an events and concert venue and performers included the band, The Who, in May 1965.[13] It also served as offices for the education department of Newham council until a major fire broke out causing considerable damage on 26 June 1982.[2] It was restored to the designs of the borough architect, Kenneth Lund, and was re-opened by Queen Elizabeth II as a conference centre on 16 July 1986.[14] "
