The Structural Engineer, Volume 33, Issue 4, 1955
THE new laboratories of the Rutherford College of Technology, Newcastle upon Tyne, are now under construction and, to clear the site, it was necessary to demolish a small house which was, at one time, the residence of the foreman of a builder’s yard.
