Loading ...Chris Pomery notifies the Rubble Club of pending demolition of this library building at Thames Valley University. “Redevelopment under the “Heart of Slough” project, due I’m told to take place end 2009, will see Slough become the only British borough to give up its university.
The building is divided into ’served’ and ’servant’ spaces, a concept developed with the Lloyds Building.
I would love to salvage materials and fittings from this building – can anyone get me access? 07778210855
Frankly its demise is utterly disgusting. TVU have lied and withheld information from FOI responses. The library is a wonderful, inviting and tranquil place to study. Its the ultimate location for peaceful, productive and enjoyable work.
TVU’s closure of their Slough campus is a direct result of a cross party alliance of Labour, Liberal (yes the old Liberal Party) and Conservative councillors who want to flood the site with 1,600 high rise flats. I want to keep the entire site as a functioning and expanding university. Politically dedicated to public education I am in a minority amongst the town’s national political parties brain-dead morons masquerading as councillors.
Would really appreciate whatever help is available to rescue and preserve this wonderful building.
AND to keep Slough’s university as a going concern in our town of Slough.
