Team wanted to transform Naas Town Hall into new library

Kildare County Council are seeking to appoint an architect-led design team for the conversion of Naas Town Hall into Naas Town Library.

The Town Hall s a three-storey former jail building originally built in 1796 by the old Naas Corporation.

In 1904 the building was renovated into a Town Hall.

The property is provided with an Italian classical style facade including a distinctive twin-faced clock.

The building is recorded as a protected structure in the current Kildare County Council Development Plan.
