History
The Forster Institute was built in 1890 at a cost £1,000 as an adult school for the education of the local working men. The building was designed by the architect J. T. Lawrence and replaced the Parish Reading Rooms in New Road. The foundation stone was laid on 11th June 1890 by Mrs C. M. Forster in memory of her late husband.

The building contains two large rooms, with the upper "lecture hall" containing a raised stage, and the downstairs a "reading and smoking room" which was at one time used for billiards.
