The library, just off the main Southgate shopping street, finds itself in a rather more peaceful area. That is, providing it doesn't host an art exhibition or a musical event - which is something the place offers as well as just books. A grand and impressive building, this fine example of more modern architecture adjoins the old Greyfriars ruins. See Image] for a bolt benchmark that can be seen on the corner.
