CDP Theme Day - Library

Coventry Central Library

Chess Anyone? That's the scene now.  
Quite different (I expect) to 
how it must have looked when
Chuck Berry recorded 'My Ding-a-Ling' right here
in 1972.  


In 1986 the library opened in premises that were formerly 
the Locarno ballroom and later Tiffany's night club.

Happily, there are some signs on display to share some of
the heritage of what is now a very quiet and peaceful library.


 ...and some photographs too.

Then (above) -
Now (below).



 On the first day of the month, members of the
City Daily Photo blog group
share theme day photos from Cities around the world.
