The Institute is situated at the corner of Market Street and Union Street. It is a two - storey building with basement, and was opened in 1858. The original conception was a "League for self-educating working men". The clock tower in the railway station style, provides a vertical accent in the heart of the town. This building houses a social club and is celebrating its 150th anniversary this year and has a membership of 1000 members. As it is a listed building, it has been fully refurbished complying with regulations.
