The Library also leads directly off the gallery, although it can be reached via a concealed panel in its partition wall with the Great Hall, and its east facing window affords a pleasing view of Temple Gardens leading down to the river.

One side of the room is filled with bookcases and above these and the mahogany door are a number of panels modelled by W.S. Frith, also in low relief, and between them finely carved figures representing the Arts and Sciences.

It is an ideal room for a less formal occasion or in which to assemble for a champagne reception prior to dinner in the Great Hall.
