The new library would benefit from more community facilities than the current building, helping to ensure it becomes an even greater valued hub for the community.

The new facilities would include a community meeting room available for use by library users, local community groups and business meetings.

We also propose a commercial unit in a prime location on the corner of Hutton Road and Friars Avenue, which could be home to a retail or café business or another community use. Again, this would have an access directly from the street.

• How would you like to see the commercial space utilised?
• Do you think library users, community groups and businesses would use the meeting room for a small charge?
