Work on new university campus is progressing

WORK to transform a Grade I-listed Government tax office into a huge new university campus is “well under way”.

- 

Now to be known as the Castle Meadow Campus, it was once a workplace for about 1,800 staff who worked for Inland Revenue (now HMRC.

The offices were put up for sale for £36 million after HMRC moved to its new Unity Square tower block off Sheriff's Way, close to Nottingham Station, in 2021.

It was sold to the University of Nottingham, which has been working on turning the site into a new campus.

The site is made up of a series of buildings with intriguing architectural features, including self-cooling glass towers and a central building covered by a fabric roof.
