Looks like we might need a clue on this one.

Ok Here is a clue - of sorts

What is it that connects Earl Grey, WilliamIV, Sir Robert Peel, Caroline Norton and Queen Victoria, a city in Australia and a town in Derbyshire?

Doug: Yes the render covers the side of the building.

Caroline Norton had it away with Lord Melbourne and lost custody of her Children after a high profile Court case. Lord Melbourne offered to resign from parliament but was rebuked by William IV.

Is this an institution named after Melbourne?

Correct, the connection is Lord Melbourne, or rather his name. I'm not sure if the former prime minister ever had any connection with Accrington. The photograph is part of what remains of Melbourne Mill on Water Street. So I guess that both KSH and Doug share the coconut. Well done chaps!
