Is this actually the University of Derby (Buxton Campus)? I'm a bit confused!

miss survey · Mar 30, 2010

It is the old Harpur Hill College which was taken over by Derby Uni. The Uni has now moved to the old Devonshire Royal Hospital in the middle of the town.

Great pics there..

Harpur Hill College

I went to this college in the 80's, before most posters were born I suspect. I was heartbroken and shocked to see the state of the place, the rooms where i stayed and the classrooms I was taught in. Its amazing and saddening to see this. Why has nothing been done to redevelop/secure this site???

I doubt it, we're an old bunch on here!

That pottery room looks very bare now. I'm sure that room at cupboards in the middle of the room with table type tops that they worked on.

When we went there were loads and loads of stuff in there, where's it all gone to?

Cheers Mr Sam, good to see the place again, even though it's even more stipped out than ever.
