Aston Library, Grade II listed public library in Aston, Birmingham, England.
Aston Library is a red brick building from the Victorian era with tall windows and ornate stonework details throughout. The structure spreads across multiple floors containing different reading rooms and book collections.
The building was constructed in the late Victorian period and originally served as part of Aston Manor Council offices. It later transformed into a public library and continues to serve that purpose.
The library holds books in many languages reflecting Birmingham's diverse population and communities. Visitors find materials representing the stories and traditions of people from different backgrounds.
The library sits on Witton Road and is accessible to visitors looking to browse books and digital materials. Plan your visit in advance as opening times are limited, and allow time to explore the different floors comfortably.
The building blends architectural elements from both municipal and educational design into one structure. This unusual mix makes it a distinctive landmark in Aston's townscape.
