Pelham Institute, Victorian Gothic structure in Kemptown, Brighton, England
The Pelham Institute features multicolored brick construction with terracotta accents, displaying high Victorian Gothic architecture through its pointed arches and segmental windows.
Built in 1877 by architect Thomas Lainson, the institute served as a working men's club providing educational and social facilities for eastern Brighton's working class.
The building operated as a community center with a large hall for concerts, lectures, and religious services, plus a reading room for local residents.
The former institute, now known as Montague Court, contains residential flats managed by a housing association following its conversion from its original purpose.
The structure received Grade II listed status in 1994, recognizing its architectural merit with its purple brick in English bond pattern and distinctive entrance design.
