Cheers Howie, I never knew that was on the cards.

IM Marsh new building unveiled
20 April 2009
Planning permission has now been submitted for a brand new development at IM Marsh.
The ?3m development will provide the campus with a purpose-built two storey teaching building incorporating new communal break-out spaces for staff and students, including a first floor roof terrace which is designed to make the most of the building?s fantastic setting on Mossley Hill and its inspirational views over the River Mersey.
Liverpool-based architects, Weightman and Bullen, won the tender to design the new building, and have considerable expertise designing educational projects. Weightman and Bullen have previously worked with LJMU on designing the social learning zones and the Graduate Development Centre.
Two informal drop-in sessions have been arranged for students, staff and the local community to find out more about the new building as well as other development plans for the campus on Thursday 23 April. The sessions will take place 2.00pm ? 4.30pm and 5.00pm ? 7.30pm. Just call into the main reception area to view the images of the site and staff will be on hand to chat through the plans.

Campus Developments at IM Marsh
05 May 2009
The IM Marsh Campus is soon to feature a new purpose-built teaching and learning environment and improved access and landscaping features.
The new two-storey build includes four classrooms, staff accommodation and a student learning zone ? an effective learning environment that has proved popular in other areas of the University, where students can work either individually or in small project groups whilst having a coffee.
The palette of materials to be used has been chosen to complement the existing buildings. With this new facility the Faculty of Education, Community and Leisure will be able to deliver programmes in large, open, flexible spaces that can be configured as required for each individual activity.
Alongside the new build, a travel plan is due for implementation in September to promote a more pedestrian-friendly environment, enabling more walking and cycle storage as an incentive to staff, students and visitors.
Additional car parking spaces and traffic calming measures are also being planned to ease congestion and minimise traffic speed, creating a safer environment for both pedestrians and cyclists.

We swam naked in the outdoor swimming pool the girls had gone for the summer break. The caretaker chased us. We all danced together beautiful girls in Rugby shirts those were the days.
Oh as I was young and easy in the mercy of his means,
Time held me green and dying
Though I sang in my chains like the sea.
