Spring Hill Library, Public library in Ladywood, Birmingham, England.
The red brick and terracotta Victorian building features a prominent 65-foot clock tower and curved iron girders supporting the interior ceiling.
The library opened in 1893 on a former turnpike gate house site of Icknield Street, designed by architectural firm Martin & Chamberlain.
Birmingham Libraries maintains this Grade II* listed building, offering educational resources and services for the local community since Victorian times.
