New heritage lecterns outside town hall
Brentwood Gazette
|November 26, 2025
SIX new heritage lecterns have been installed this month outside Brentwood Town Hall, thanks to UK Shared Prosperity Funding from UK Government.
-
The previous lecterns, which were damaged, worn and outdated, were installed outside the Town Hall in 2009 as part of a larger heritage scheme to commemorate the borough's residents who have significantly contributed to political, scientific, artistic, literary and sporting heritage.
The lectern scheme was designed to strengthen a sense of local and national identity, promoting Brentwood's people, buildings and sites which have historical significance.
