    Since we were the first users in 1965, I guess it's almost ready to be pulled down by now...

    Nice pictures.

    I took a walk around the Victoria Building, the main red brick 'Alfred Waterhouse' University building which now hosts weddings and seminars and the like. It has galleries which some people might not generally know about so well worth a visit but I was more interested in the architecture of the building itself which hailed from the late 1800s.
