The roots of the college can be traced directly back to the founding of the Library and Mechanics’ Institute in 1824 which after several moves, eventually settled in the Storey Institute on Meeting House Lane in Lancaster.
Having moved to its current site in 1963, the new college was officially opened by HRH The Duke of Edinburgh.
To help mark this landmark anniversary, we’ve had a search through our archives and found a great selection of pictures taken at the college over the years.
