Opened in the 1920s, the Institute was once a social hub for the steelworkers and their families who had themselves subsidised the club with their wages.. since its closure by the council with a CPO it has fallen into disrepair and has suffered several arson attempts and repeated chav abuse

George Wimpey Homes acquired the site in 2007 and secured planning permission for between 350 and 450 flats and houses on the 20-acre site, as well as redeveloping the Institute as a restaurant or housing... today with the economic slowdown work at the site continues yet the institute remains untouced

Heres a selection of my pictures with more on my site here

Good to see this place again. Looks like they've taken all the furnishings out, including the piano in the bar.
