Following a competitive tendering exercise, commercial property agent Legat Owen has been appointed to explore alternative uses for the building and to assess the level of commercial demand.

A preliminary marketing exercise will be undertaken between January and March 2023 and interested parties should contact Legat Owen on 01244 408 200.

The attractive city centre building was originally built in 1907 with money donated by the Scottish businessman and philanthropist Andrew Carnegie and was a popular library until the new one on Llwyn Isaf opened in 1971.
