The
hall from the 1880s
漏 Reflections |
St
George's Hall opened its doors to the public in 1854, over 10 years
after it was first commissioned.
The
architect responsible for the bulk of the design was Harvey Lonsdale
Elmes.
The
Hall was built to provide a venue for the triennial music festivals.
On top of this the courts were added as Elmes had been commissioned
to design both buildings, and due to funding 'issues' they were
combined.
