This is a photograph of the Victoria Theatre (formerly known as Town Hall) and Victoria Memorial Hall (renamed as the Victoria Concert Hall in 1980), taken at night from under an arch on the Anderson Bridge. The lights illuminate the complex of theatre, concert hall and clock tower against the night sky, with the well-lit arch framing the image. The statue of Sir Stamford Raffles can also be seen in front of the complex. The Victoria Theatre and Victoria Concert Hall was gazetted as a national monument on 14 February 1992. Title devised by Library staff. Date of creation estimated.
