For more information see Image . This is the Gladys Spedding Theatre, opened in 2001 (when the school was called North Cumbria Technology College). Most of the school buildings were demolished in 2013. Parts of the theatre were also removed (eg the projecting triangular canopy) but the auditorium was retained, and incorporated into the development of a new community campus (see http://www.harrabycommunitycentre.org.uk/Community-Theatre ). A sign on the wall to the left says 'Carlisle College'. During 2011 about half of the college's staff and students were temporarily relocated to vacant buildings at Harraby, while their own campus near the city centre was undergoing redevelopment.
