This was the Bedford Teacher Training College, seen here from the junction between Polhill Avenue and Goldington Road. The college opened on this site in about 1966. The central block in this picture and the tower were student accommodation. The car is an MG 1100. My room was on the left on the 8th floor of the tower.
