The Final Phase, Building New where the Trinity Tower, Classrooms and Hall Once Stood

 

Once the old Trinity Buildings had been demolished in August 2005, nothing happened for almost 12 months, but then in June 2006 work started on clearing the site properly for the new construction on the next phase of Unity College to begin. This page records these changes as they happen.
