Aylesbury Town Hall is a name which has been used for two different buildings in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, England. Since 2007 the name has been used for an office building at 5 Church Street, which serves as the headquarters of Aylesbury Town Council.[1] The name was also formerly used for a complex of buildings which had been built in 1865 as a corn exchange in Market Square, and which served as the offices and meeting place of the local council from 1901 to 1968. The majority of the old town hall was demolished shortly afterwards, leaving only the entrance archway facing Market Square still standing, now called Town Hall Arches.[2] This remaining part of the old town hall is a Grade II* listed building as part of the range of civic buildings on the southern side of Market Square including the old County Hall.[3]

Heritage Statement paragraph 3.8: "Though the list description refers to the Arches structure as the former town hall, historic documents and maps make it clear that the Arches structure is actually the surviving joining structure between the 18th century Courts building and the originally much larger Corn Exchange which extended to the east and south and only later became the Town Hall in 1901."
