History

Following the implementation of the Local Government Act 1888, which established county councils in every county, it became necessary to find a meeting place for the East Riding County Council.[2] Initially meetings of the County Council were held in the Sessions House and in the Guildhall.[3] A new purpose-built building, which was designed by R. G. Smith and F. S. Brodrick in the Flemish Renaissance style, was completed in 1891.[1] Following the abolition of East Riding County Council in 1974, it became the offices of Humberside County Council.[1] Since the abolition of Humberside County Council in 1996, it has served as the offices of East Riding of Yorkshire Council.[4]
