This grim building is now empty and the site is awaiting redevelopment. It was put up in the early 1960s and I can recall that it was the first building in the town to have lifts. I shouldn't be too hard on the place as it did contribute in a small way to my education but it is typical of perhaps the decade that architects should be most ashamed of. Godspeed the wrecking ball to lay this sad structure to rest.
