The Sir Martin Gilbert Library

Senior School

The Sir Martin Gilbert Library

An architecturally rich and visually striking space, The Sir Martin Gilbert Library combines contemporary functionality with historic grandeur. Housed within a period building, the space features a soaring timber vaulted ceiling, symmetrical mezzanine walkways lined with bookshelves, and dramatic spiral staircases. Natural light pours through tall windows, while stylish circular lighting adds a modern contrast. The Shakespeare steps leading up to the entrance offer a memorable photo backdrop for special occasions.
