Lyme Regis Guildhall, Dorset, UK
A guildhall is either a town hall, or a building historically used by guilds for meetings and other purposes, in which sense it can also be spelled as "guild hall" and may also be called a "guild house". It is also the official or colloquial name for many of these specific buildings, many of which are now museums. The history of The Guildhall can be traced back as far as the Stuart period. The main Chamber with it's curved ceiling and coat of arms was once the local court and the main body of the building including the Mayor's Parlour was built in 1887 on the site of the town's lock-up.
