Trafford Town Hall
The building faces Emirates Old Trafford to the south and is within 500 metres of Manchester United's Football Ground to the north.[2] It was designed by architects Bradshaw Gass & Hope of Bolton on behalf of Stretford Municipal Borough, and built by the main contractor Edwin Marshall & Sons.Set in landscaped grounds with a sunken garden, it is constructed of brick in Flemish bond with gritstone dressings.[3] The building was constructed with a portico with a doric order column and a pillar on either side and a wrought-iron parapet with a circle motif above.[3] Inside the building, on either side of the central staircase are bronze statues, one of Electra,[6] who was one of the 3,000 Oceanids, and the other of Njörðr, who was the God of wind and sea.
