Kilburn Building, Oxford Road, Manchester
This redoubtable building houses the University of Manchester's School of Computer Science.
It used to be reachable by the elevated walkway which ran from the Precinct Centre to the Maths Tower so may well date from Wilson & Womersley's work in the early 1970s (Image]).

Not the Maths Tower, Oxford Road, Manchester
I was shocked and stunned to find that the Maths Tower has gone. Was it not enough that I studied within its lofty confines for three years? Apparently not. In fact, it was demolished in 2005, before it had reached forty years of age. It was a landmark in the area, providing a counterpoint to Waterhouse's tower over the road (Image]). Pevsner described it as one of the best of the university's buildings.
Shame on the University of Manchester for pulling it down, and an extra dollop of shame for replacing it with something so innocuous (thrillingly called University Place).
