The Persian Cultural Centre describes itself as a “community-driven arts hub, showcasing the best of Persian culture”

It opened in 2021 after the building had “sat empty for some time”, according to planning documents.

The building was used as a bank, it’s thought from the 80s to the 90s. After this it was the home for antique stalls for a short period.
