Talbot Community Centre
(formerly Talbot Institute)
Address9 Prince Road |  |
The Talbot Community Centre is a former Miner's Institute and a true community centre, as it is owned and run by the local community, for the community and most of the people involved are volunteers.
The Centre has full Disabled facilities, including a lift.
There are three rooms available for hire; Meeting Room 1, a small room situated on the ground floor, Meeting Room 2, a small room situated upstairs and the Main Hall, which is a large hall with a stage, along with toilet and catering facilities.
Meeting Room 1
This room is situated on the ground floor and suitable for meetings of up to 10 people. Access is gained through the door immediately to the right of the main door. Toilet facilities are available in the main hall, however the main hall may be in use, so users should act accordingly.

Access is gained from the stairs to the left of the main door and the door to the room is directly in front of you at the top of the stairs. Wheelchair access is via the lift next to the stairs. Toilet facilities are available in the main hall, however the main hall may be in use, so users should act accordingly.
