The former Ironworks Institute was erected in 1904 as a community resource for the miners. It had a billiard room, library and reading room, function hall, games room and ancillary facilities. The Institute was later closed and, for a number of years, the building was used as an outdoor activity centre. (Source: "The River Ayr Way", by Dane Love)
