The town hall, which was the headquarters of Rhyl Urban District Council, is a Grade II listed building.

[3] After this facility also proved inadequate, the commissioners decided to demolish the existing structure and to construct a new building on the same site.

[4] It was designed by Wood and Turner of Barrow-in-Furness in the Gothic style, built in Penmaenmawr stone by a local contractor, J. Rhydwen Jones, at a cost of £6,000, and officially opened by Hughes, when he returned on 11 October 1876.

[6] After significant population growth, largely associated with the seaside tourism industry, the area was advanced to the status of urban district with the town hall as its headquarters in 1895.

[8][9] The Afro-American educator and activist, Hallie Quinn Brown, gave a talk in the town hall in January 1898.
