Testimonial:

www.tol.org.uk Since 1905, The Old Library has been a symbol of hope in L13. Funded by wealthy philanthropist Andrew Carnegie, this iconic building was donated to the people of Liverpool as a safe space for learning and served four generations as a much-loved local library until it closed & fell into disrepair in 2006. With so many fond memories of The Old Library, local charity Lister Steps knew this special building was an important part of our community’s shared heritage and in 2012, we embarked on the long journey to bring it back to life. Thanks to funding from the National Lottery Heritage Fund and support from Liverpool City Council, we have repaired, restored & re-designed the building into a multi-use venue for events, learning and fun.

We were tasked by a local contractor to remove the bitumen from around 300m2 of Pitch Pine Parquet flooring, original to The Old Library building in 1905. This project received a £3.95 million Lottery Grant, along with £100k Liverpool council fund. These blocks were damp, dirty and covered in bitumen when they arrived at our workshop. We are pleased to say that after many months of blood, sweat and hard work, we brought them back to their former glory. They are now back where they belong in The Old Library. Nothing is too old to re start a new life.
