Technical education in the district started in 1876 at the Viaduct Institute, but by the start of the 20th century demand for technical education to support the numerous engineering works in the district was growing rapidly. Initially to have been a joint building with the library, budgetary problems ensured that the library was built first, with the neighbouring technical school following a couple of years later. It was opened on 28th September 1911 by Sir Henry Hibbert with a golden key presented by the contractors (Massey Brothers of Pemberton). 

Frying Pan

The “Frying Pan” was created in the 1930’s as one of four small public spaces around the town. It originally had park benches but in recent years had fallen into disuse. When the Technical School building was demolished in 2015 the ornate stonework seen here was rescued thanks to the efforts of the local council, Newton and Earlestown Community Group, and financial assistance from the Wates group, and this now forms an interesting local landmark. The opening ceremony for the revamped Frying Pan was held on 2nd May 2015, where it was dedicated to the memory of Sylvia O’Neill.
