St. George's Hall

St George’s Plateau by Cenotaph Our tour starts at the Plateau, where we take a moment to pause and remember those who lost their lives in both World Wars. The main part of the memorial is the Cenotaph, or empty tomb, built in 1930 to commemorate WW1 it later became a memorial to WW2 as well. The panels around the memorial depict images from troops marching, to mourners laying wreaths.St George’s Hall and St John’s Gardens We are surrounded by history wherever we look in this large, impressive area. Starting with St George’s Hall, a beautiful structure from the 19th century. When commissioned it was required to accommodate 1000 people for a concert or lecture with separate space for smaller meetings. Costs were estimated at £35,000, they spiralled £300,000, a huge amount for the time. The hall was restored in 2007, to the beautiful structure you see today, it was reopened by Prince Charles.
