The Shire Hall is a building in Newport, south Wales which served as the County Hall for Monmouthshire until the Monmouth County Council was wound up in 1974. It continued to be used as local government headquarters until 1978 and has subsequently been converted into offices. The current buildings were erected in 1902 and extended in 1913, adding the top storey to the Shire Hall and adjoining Queen's Chambers. The buildings have been Grade-II listed since 1998 in recognition of their historic and architectural qualities. The Shire Hall has been described by conservationists Cadw as an impressively-designed Edwardian civic building.
