Directions:

The Library is the red-brick building on the right of The Boulevard (as you head away from the town centre), between an old hospital residential development and a BT exchange.
From the M5 leave at junction 21. Follow signs along Somerset Avenue for A370 Weston-super-Mare.
After going through four roundabouts, you will pass at three miles through an area of superstores.
At the fifth roundabout turn right and over a railway bridge. At a cross roads with traffic lights go straight ahead into Ashcombe Road. Continue through a mini-roundabout. At traffic lights opposite a cemetery entrance turn left into Milton Road and continue to the Boulevard, a tree-lined avenue. Parking is available outside the library on the street.
