Leys Institute closure - No way say locals

Earlier today a crowd of 60 locals turned up to show their support for the renovation of the Leys Institute and Gymnasium which was peremptorily closed with one day’s notice to staff and library visitors.

However, we must now ensure that the library is repaired as soon as possible. Locals will just not tolerate talk of demolition or sale, nor leaving it empty to deteriorate. Photography: Connor Crawford.
