The Library Gardens are located behind the Town's Library in West Street on 3 different levels. Each of the 3 levels has its own charm and character.
Relax in the fragrant garden, enjoy the sight and sound of the water fountain or if you are feeling energetic, make use of the free tennis court, in the lowest tier of the garden.
Dotted around the gardens are exhibits of site responsive artwork by students of the University College of the Creative Arts.
