others are slower to warm to its charms.
Either way, it works hard, housing 25
lecture theatres, and has recently been
awarded Grade 2* listed status.
The Edge Sports Centre
(building number 101)
Opened in 2010, the Edge is at the corner
o campus, down rom the Roger Stevens
Building, and houses the swimming pool
and the largest university gym in the
country. Feel ree to take a look, as tours
are running all day.
With everything here in one place, our campus can be a little tricky to navigate, but
these landmarks - together with the map overlea - should help you nd your way
around and explore the University.
