About LOWESTOFT TOWN COUNCIL

Lowestoft Town Council was formed in 2017 via a Reorganisation Order. One of the assets it is responsible for is the Town Hall - a Grade II listed landmark and the most prominent building on the historic High Street of Lowestoft, which has been boarded up since its previous owners moved out in 2015. Lowestoft Town Council has been successful in gaining funding for the restoration and adaption of the building as well as the delivery of a comprehensive programme of heritage activities that will enable participants to learn and engage with the heritage of the town and bring communities together enhancing community pride. Funding support has come from The National Lottery Heritage Fund, the Towns Fund, East Suffolk Council as well as Lowestoft Town Council.
