Former Library
Built in 1911 as a Carnegie Library. Carnegie Libraries were part funded by the Scottish-American businessman/philanthropist, among the conditions being that his contribution was matched by the community in which the library was built, who also had to provide the land - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnegie_library.
The building here was designed by local architect F G W Dudley, and followed the typical Carnegie formula of a grand entrance accesse by a flight of steps. It is locally listed.
It continued to house the City's public library until replaced in the 1980s by a new one in the Maltings development on the opposite side of Victoria Street. It is now an O'Neills Bar.
