Refurbishment works for one of Hackney’s historic libraries were given the green light this week, as the council approved a contractor to carry out the revamp. Church Street’s Grade II-listed Stoke Newington Library shut last March, after its partially collapsed roof and crumbling masonry had made it too dangerous for visitors.
