PLANS have been submitted to repair and restore parts of Clitheroe library.
Submitted by Lancashire County Council, the proposals include a 'like for like' restoration of the bell tower, roof areas, ceiling and internal plaster works at the library's meeting room in York Street.
Clitheroe library was built in 1905, with funding by the Carnegie Trust.
Within a planning document a spokesman on behalf of the applicant said: "The existing meeting room and hall roof space is currently confirmed as structurally unsound.
"Failing roof structural members, gable wall and friable gable wall stonework will be renovated on a 'like for like' basis and treated to eradicate existing wet rot and insect attack of timbers."
