THE country's only library reading garden is taking shape at Lindley.

Plans for a tranquil area, including an Edwardian gazebo, raised flowerbeds and a log pile, were outlined at Lindley Library, Lidget Street.

The project - paid for so far by the Yorkshire Museums Libraries and Archives Council - will see a grassed and paved area at the side of the library, with seating for library users.

Now, local businesses are being asked to help raise cash to enable the plans to go ahead.

At the unveiling of the plans on site are ( from left) designer Rachael Nitz, project co-ordinator Bryony Taylor and library manager Janet Pearson.

Ms Taylor said: "The design looks great. We hope it will inspire local businesses and groups to get involved in creating a wonderful amenity for the community."

Local children have also contributed to the project and will be invited to take part in a design-a-tile competition.

The winning entries will be used to decorate the garden.
