More about this scene
Local pit manager Sir William Garforth, who donated 250 books, opened this Carnegie Library on 29 May 1907. The library was in the grounds of Hawhill Park - a perfect place for learning and recreation. Books were issued here for the final time on Friday 26 October 2001. Since then, a more modern facility has been opened next to the new swimming baths.
