Constructed in the late 19th century along Rattigan Road in Lahore, Bradlaugh Hall served as a significant venue for various leaders of India, especially those from Punjab. Erected in 1893, the hall was credited to Mr. Charles Bradlaugh, a British MP esteemed in Indian circles for his fervent advocacy of Indian self-governance.

Frequent visitors and speakers at Bradlaugh Hall included notable freedom fighters such as Allama Muhammad Iqbal, Maulana Zafar Ali Khan, Dr. Muhammad Ashraf, Mian Ifthikhar ud din, and Malik Barkat Ali. Despite its historical significance, the hall had fallen into disrepair and was encroached upon by surrounding residents.

In 2023, the Walled City Lahore Authority initiated preservation efforts for this iconic structure. Restoration work entails consolidating

Haveli Nau Nihal Singh at Bhatti Gate, Lahore 📍

The Haveli of Nau Nihal Singh is a haveli mansion located in Lahore. Dating from the Sikh era of the mid 19th century,the haveli is considered to be one of the finest example of sikh architecture in Lahore. The haveli was built around late 1830's for Nau Nihal Singh by his grandfather and founder of the sikh empire, Maharaja Ranjit Singh. The mansion was intended to be a personal residence for Nau Nihal Singh. The haveli has been used, since the British colonial era,to house the Victoria Girls' High School.

A large jharoka balcony with sculpted brickwork and a small bulbous half dome is above the haveli's entry, which acted as a Jharoka-e-Darshan from which the Maharaja could view his subjects gathered below. The jharoka features 5 small arches, and is embellished imagery of winged humans, parrots, and frontally-viewed fish that are carved in a style which displays East Asian influences. The winged humans resemble both Islamic descriptions of angels, but also reflect influences of the mythical Hindu garuda. The base of the dome is decorated with a serpent-like figure which echoes the Hindu snake god Naga. The Jharoka-e-Darshan is flanked by two smaller jharokas. Each of the haveli's jharokas is decorated with a floral pedestal.
