Heritage at Risk
Hackney Council is addressing the Heritage at Risk status of Stoke Newington Town Hall by approving a £1.4 million contract for repairs.
Hackney Council's Procurement Board approved a contract in September 2026 for over £1.4 million for architectural and design services to address severe water ingress and infrastructure failures at Stoke Newington Town Hall. This decision aims to tackle issues that led to the Grade II listed building being placed on Historic England's Heritage at Risk register, which identifies historic sites facing threats of decay or loss.
The contract, awarded to a supplier, will manage multi-disciplinary consultancy services for six capital delivery projects across the Grade II listed building. Stoke Newington Town Hall has been on the register since November 2024 due to severe water ingress, including the complete failure of multiple roofing systems and an inadequate rainwater drainage strategy.
