MIDDLEWICH Library is set to get a facelift.

Plans to renovate the building in Lewin Street with new windows and doors have been submitted to Cheshire East Council.

A council spokesman said: "The original windows require replacement as they are nearing the end of their lifespan, have a

poor thermal performance and are difficult to access and maintain."

Middlewich Community Library was build around 1960

The proposed work will include the replacement of windows, doors, fascias and boards that cover the ends of roof rafters, including the lobby entrance and canopy.

Low carbon and modern materials will be used where possible in the renovation.
