This rather unusual Arts and Crafts building dates from 1909, when it was built by Benjamin Bower as the local library. It attracted a Grade II listing https://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101343066-rednal-library-longbridge-ward#.ZATBBHbP3IU & https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1343066 in 1982. A quick peer through the windows suggests it's no longer a library, but appeared to be some sort of council store for office equipment, maybe, and no longer open to the public.
