Lectures rescheduled after ceiling collapse
Newsflash

A piece of the ceiling in a lecture theatre in King's Buildings collapsed in last week.

A ceiling panel with about the length and width of a door fell down the evening Friday February 10.

The panel fell in the evening when no students were present in Ashworth Lecture Theatre 1.

Lectures were relocated as the ceiling was being repaired and re-assessed for health and safety last week.

The Ashworth Building is 82 years old and the lecture theatre is mostly used for Natural History lectures.

Renovations should be complete this week.
