From the Voices of Kingstanding page inviting memories of Kingstanding Library.
Gwen Clifford recalls there: “Before the present library was built the library facilities for Kingstanding were housed in the Methodist Church Building on the corner of Kings Road and Carshalton Road. I walked there nearly every Saturday afternoon in the mid 1950s … The same building was also used as an annexe for a few classrooms from Kings Rise School round the corner in Hornsey Road.”

“Remember the old library at the Methodist church, it had the most wonderful smell. I used to get mainly books on birds and animals, still a passion after 60 years.”
