I have this labelled as the K and L residential blocks, so I must have been looking south-west from within the "quadrangle". The college was built circa 1963. Much of it has been demolished (2006-2008). With a lot of new buildings, the site now functions as a sports centre, aping the Americans by being referred to as the Walsall Campus of the University of Wolverhampton The image has been scanned from an Agfa Gevaert monochrome transparency dated February 1970.
