Weston Library

Weston

Weston Library opened in 1974 in a small temporary building in Weston Lane. In 2000, after the building was damaged by a stolen car crashing into it, the library moved into the renovated and adapted premises of a former chip shop in Weston Lane. As of August 2016, this site is now being re-developed (following building collapse) and a library run by the YMCA will be part of the development.
