Swinton Town Hall/Salford Civic Centre
Swinton and Pendlebury Town Hall on Chorley Road was opened in September 1938. In 1974 the new 'city of Salford' was formed following the reorganisation of local government in England and Wales and Swinton town hall was chosen as the administrative headquarters of the new Metropolitan District's office, and so, on 1 April 1974, it officially became the Salford Civic Centre.
