THE DISTANT DECADE: CAITHNESS COUNTY, 1925–1935
Abstract
Basically I doubt whether the Wick Public Library, which I first knew as a child, and later as an assistant, has altered much externally, unless it has been extended in some way at the back. It was a handsome building, standing on a road junction; one wing containing the newsroom with museum above lay along Sinclair Terrace, the other at right angles to it lay down Cliff Road which led to Bridge Street. This wing had a large room on the ground floor originally designed as an amusements room, but as I remember it used as a stock room for the Caithness County Library when it was formed. Above it was a room planned as a ladies' magazine room, but used in the 1930s as a work room.
