A bright, sunny day shows off the front entrance to Saltaire's Victoria Hall at its best. The Victoria Hall is one of the most important public buildings in Saltaire village. Completed in June 1871, it was originally known as the Saltaire Club and Institute, designed to be a social club and an educational facility at the heart of Sir Titus Salt's model village. It is still well-used by the local community for concerts, exhibitions, craft fairs and sales, weddings and all sorts of meetings and evening classes.

A very classical and beautyful building!
ReplyDeleteThere must be a large ballroom as well as meeting rooms. I will have a look at the other site.

ReplyDeleteI think architecture like this is so regal. Don't see many new buildings coming up I can call regal.

It is what I would call a 'grand' building :)
ReplyDeleteI like the new look -- more spacious.
ReplyDeleteThe site looks better Jenny.

I'm going to wait until I'm well rested before i try it.
It really is a beautiful building. We have buildings over here that copy that architectural style.
