The Library is housed in the former chapel of the Coton Hill Asylum, built in the 1850s as a private asylum for the insane. All but the lodges and the chapel were demolished in 1976 and the new Stafford District General Hospital was built on the site. The modern Postgrad Centre is in the background. For a view of the chapel interior see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4346953.
