THURSFORD VILLAGE "BRING AND BORROW" LIBRARY
Location: lnside the village Red Telephone Box on The Green.
Description: Adjacent to the village defibrillator is a collection of second-hand books covering a wide range of topics, donated by local people. Anyone from the village is invited to take a book/s on free loan. Please return the books when you have finished reading it/them.

PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE BOOKS OR JIGSAWS ON THE TELEPHONE BOX FLOOR, WHICH GETS DAMP.
A good number of people now visit the collection, so books and jigsaws are constantly refreshed and are subsequently borrowed.
