Exeter Guildhall

Description

Exeter Guildhall on the High Street has been the centre of civic government for the city for at least 600 years. Much of the fabric of the building was built between 1468 and 1470., though the elaborate frontage was added in the 1590s and the interior was extensively restored in the 19th century.

The guildhall is still used for civil purposes such as official receptions, mayoral banquets, some City Council meetings, other meetings and exhibitions and occasionally as a magistrates' court.
