Photographer's note: 'The Victoria Library, designed by the architect A J Bolton, is of special architectural interest on account of the quality of its exuberant Queen Anne exterior with its stone dressings on the façade, terracotta dressings to the rear and its substantially complete interior, with surviving book hoist and galleries and ornamental ironwork. It is also a relatively early example of such an institution in the London context. Red brick laid in a Flemish bond with Portland Stone dressings, some terracotta to rear. Slate roof behind lowered parapet.'
