Hull
What it’s like
A small local library with Baby Bounce sessions, a craft club and a decent shelf of children's and teen books, free to join.
This is the sort of library that runs on a short but useful timetable rather than being open all hours, so it pays to know when the doors are unlocked. There's a proper stretch of children's and teenage books to work through, plus two regular draws for younger visitors: Baby Bounce for the pre-walkers and a Children's Craft Club for the ones who want glue on the table rather than just a story.
Membership is free and gets you into the wider Hull City Library catalogue, so if this branch hasn't got the book you want, you can order it in and have it delivered here rather than trek across town. That's the kind of quietly handy detail that makes a small local branch worth the membership card.
Opening hours are patchy across the week: Monday and Thursday afternoons, Tuesday and Friday mornings, and shut altogether on Wednesday. It's not a place to turn up on spec without checking which half-day you've landed on. The building has an accessible toilet, a hearing loop and wifi, and it's on a public transport route.
