The Library

The Devon Way building was closed by Calderdale Council in January 2019 due to health and safety concerns about the building, with alternatives including Brighouse and Halifax’s Central Library being used by most customers, said the authority.

The building, which is about two miles north of Brighouse, comprising a single storey former library, approximately 132 square metres (1,419 square feet) on a site of approximately 0.05 hectares (0.124 acres)

As it stands, the building consists of 121 sq m (1,302 sq ft) of “open plan” library, 1.9m (20 sq ft) of storage, a 3.5 m (37 sq ft) kitchen and a 5.5 m (59 sq feet) canteen.
