Im really struggling to find anything about this place @HughieD did well to find the information he did here.
It was most definitely used as some sort of youth / social club in its later life as there is many pictures form its former glory still inside which was kinda of sad

This was just a chance spot while passing & as is often the case it turned out to be rather nice. The main feature is the higher floor main hall (which absolutely stunk from the pigeon infestation) & the Mural to the miners, with its central plaque to the life's lost in the Parkgate pit disaster of 1904.

Down the ornate staircase, there is a mixture of small rooms & kitchen areas
