Professor Anne Boddington, Dean of the College of Arts and Humanities based at the university’s Grand Parade campus, adjoining the Circus Street site, said: “We are delighted that work is underway – a high-quality new arts and humanities teaching and library space, as well as welcoming public exhibition space and café, will greatly enhance our educational offer at the university.
