Free Early Tudor style with Modern Movement influences. 2 storeys, attic and 2 basements; 14-window range. A symmetrical front has shallow projecting wings with paired buttresses to the lower half, a parapet and gables set back with clasping buttresses, linked by a parapet in front of the recessed attic storey. Semicircular-arched doorway in the left-hand wing has splayed sides and a moulded arch, with a carved architrave to a flat-headed doorway with double half-glazed doors, and a segmental-arched plate-glass overlight. A tall shallow mullion and transom oriel above has a carved base and a parapet; the right-hand wing has a mullion and transom window below the oriel. Outer ground-floor windows to the wings are set in semicircular recesses; all ground-floor windows have 2-lights with moulded surrounds. The central section has 3 full-height segmental-arched recesses, with paired ground-floor windows and first-floor canted oriels with chequerboard panels to the sides, and a coved cornice; above are carved figures of Bede, Alfred the Great and Chaucer in the tympanum. Shallow buttresses to the second floor flank the windows. The gables have round mullion and transom windows, a gabled moulded cornice with Tudor roses and a shield.

Emmy nominated singer/songwriter ellen cherry gave a wonderful performance at the Friendswood Public Library, performing numerous songs from her cd (New) Years among several others.
What I like a lot about this resort is all the old architecture and buildings/houses you can find. Lots of history and character showing.
Fr: Ce que j’aime dans ce coin c’est toute la vieille architecture et les immeubles/ maisons que l’on peut voir. Il y a plein d’histoire et de caractere.
Freaky Friday is the culmination of the Summer programs for the Tweens and Young Adults. They get to come to the library after hours on Friday and have pizza, games and win prizes! This year was a blast!

Book Week Scotland, Library Link “blether” event.
Chippy was the favourite Scottish word at McDonald Road Library last week, when 6 library links from across the city gathered together to celebrate Book Week Scotland.
Launched in 1992, Library Link is a bus service which runs in nearly every library across the city for anyone who has difficulty getting to the library because of their age, disability or ill health. Last Tuesday the link services from Corstorphine, Granton, Sighthill, Piershill, Wester Hailes and McDonald Road came together for a ‘blether’, a chippy and sing song, with entertainment provided by the Ceilidh Crew.
Organised by Edinburgh Libraries, our partner The Royal Voluntary Service and with funding from Book Week Scotland and Scottish Book Trust, over 40 Library Link members arrived to some classic Scottish tunes from the Ceilidh Crew which had been requested by the guests beforehand, Mairi’s Wedding and My Bonnie lies over the ocean both really got the crowd going, before stopping for fish and chips and a blether. The time went all too quickly, and it was soon time for everyone to go home.
