Clifford Whitworth Library viewed from outside the Chapman Building
The photo below was taken in 1971 and shows a newly built Library building.
Before this building, which went on to be named the Clifford Whitworth Library, was built, the library was housed in the Maxwell Building. Extensions, in the form of an entrance and the Lady Hale Building, have since been made to the left and right of the original building. The grassy area is now paved and New Adelphi fills much of the surrounding area.
