On the corner of Antrim Road and Antrim Grove, to the west of Haverstock Hill, this Library was built in the 1930s to replace the original library which was part of the 1890's building development on Antrim Road. After Camden council withdrew funding it closed early in 2012. It is now run as an independent Community Library by the local children’s and youth development charity, The Winch with the support of the local community. The other community libraries in Camden are Keats Community Library in Keats Grove, Hampstead, and Primrose Hill Community Library in Sharpleshall Street, Primrose Hill.
