Day 255 - September 12th

Today we travelled to Nottingham with Steven for the University of Nottingham Open Day. Although this is the university that his brother is currently studying at, as Steven is considering applying for a place as a future Computer Studies student, we visited a different campus to the campus we have been to before.

The Jubilee Campus is very different to the University Park Campus. University Park Campus was completed in 1928 and still has many of the original buildings from that time (as well as some much more modern buildings) and includes 13 listed buildings.

The Jubilee Campus is 1 mile form the University Park Campus and was opened in 1999. The design of the buildings are very modern and innovative and some have living (Sedum) roofs.

The library building is particularly interesting situated in the middle of a lake with one, single spiraling floor.
