According to the inscription above the entrance [http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5971857], the building was erected in 1901. The clock above the entrance is dated 1837 on this side, but 1897 on the other, with a VR cipher, so must commemorate Queen Victoria's diamond jubilee, although slightly late. The YMCA has not used the building since the 1970s, and the hall was used by the local Council as a community space until fairly recently, when it closed due to health and safety concerns relating to the condition of the floor. The building next door is the home of the Northern Times, the local newspaper.
