WEMBLEY TOWN HALL

Brent Town Hall, formerly Wembley Town Hall, is a landmark building in Wembley Park in the London Borough of Brent, northwest London, England. The building is T-shaped, with a long façade on Forty Lane. The building was the seat of Brent London Borough Council until 2013 and is now occupied by the Lycée International de Londres Winston Churchill. It is a Grade II listed building. The foundation stone for the new building was laid by Alderman Herbert Gauntlett on 9 October 1937. The building was designed by Clifford Strange, a former student of Thomas S. Tait who had been influenced in his work by the Dutch architect Willem Marinus Dudok. The building, which was even fitted with a bomb-proof first-aid post, was opened as Wembley Town Hall in 1940.
