West Court, Jesus College, Cambridge – Niall McLaughlin
The 1970’s Rank building along the southern boundary of Jesus College has been refaced, refurbished and converted creating a new lecture theatre, research facilities, teaching spaces and visitor accommodation. And a new entrance building alongside, giving onto Jesus Lane, links the Rank building to the grade II listed Webb building facing it across an internal courtyard.
A new cafe pavilion on the north side of the listed building opens out onto the college fields, while further refurbishment here provides offices, social spaces and student accommodation.
