Work is well underway at the site where the new Sherwood library will be built, along with new homes and a Sainsbury's Local. Images show the steel structure of the site centrepiece being constructed, which is the first part of the development.
Property developers Hockley Developments is working on the site at Spondon Street in Sherwood and once complete, the new library will be 50 per cent bigger than the former one. There will also be mixed housing on the site.
Local residents were previously positive about a Sainsbury's Local coming to that part of Sherwood too. The redevelopment of the site comes after Nottingham City Council deemed the old library was no longer fit for purpose.
