  This paper presents Gemini-$gri'$ high quality photometry for cluster
candidates in the field of NGC 1316 (Fornax A) as part of a study that also
includes GMOS spectroscopy. A preliminary discussion of the photometric data
indicates the presence of four stellar cluster populations with distinctive
features in terms of age, chemical abundance and spatial distribution. Two of
them seem to be the usually old (metal poor and metal rich) populations
typically found in elliptical galaxies. In turn, an intermediate-age (5 Gyr)
globular cluster population is the dominant component of the sample (as
reported by previous papers). We also find a younger cluster population with a
tentative age of $\approx$ 1 Gyr.
