1. MAYOR'S PARLOUR (LIBRARY)
The enquiry desk area of Clitheroe library used to be the mayor's parlour where the mayor may have entertained guests. The window over the stairs would have looked onto York Street once, before the library's extension in 1990. Above the mayor's parlour is the original Council Chamber, used today for meetings and library activities. Compare the height of the air vent and the windows in the photograph to the room today and you'll notice that the floor used to be much higher. Could the waist-height ledge be the original floor level?
