Re: Puzzle 5

Errmm, No. The reason being that although the same, or similar, material is used ie:Sandstone, the Style is much earlier than that used on the Manchester Road building, which can be loosley defined as Art Deco as opposed to Neo Classical or Neo Baroque.

Have another go.

Re: Puzzle 5

Vaguely similar dates, different styles; so it isn't the library.
