The building is Grade II Listed, located in the heart of town, newly renovated it is a beacon of history, showcasing the town’s historical character.

The Hall was built in 1785 for Thomas Forsyth and designed by Samuel Pepys Cockerell. The Duchess of Kent and a young Princess Victoria holidayed at Pierremont from 1826 to 1836. It knew various owners until its sale in 1896 to Leonard Posnett who used it as a school. Most of the original 30 acres of land were developed as housing and the building and remaining park were sold to the Urban District Council in 1927.

The outdoor facilities which adjoin the public gardens surrounding the building, are also in use. The gardens have helped the town win no less than four South East in Bloom trophies, and contain some interesting specimen plants and trees.

There is a children’s playground and a picnic area within the delightful grounds in the centre of the town.

At the rear of the Council Chamber Hall are charming gardens, recently redesigned with new planting, a pergola and improved seating, providing perfect photo opportunies to capture those memorable moments.
