Beecroft Building

It is located on Parks Road in the Science Area of Oxford University.

[1][4] The building was opened by Sir Tim Berners-Lee (who studied Physics as an undergraduate at Oxford) on 17 September 2018,[1] in the presence of Professor Louise Richardson (Vice-Chancellor of Oxford), Lord Patten of Barnes (Chancellor of Oxford), Professor John Wheater (Head of the Department of Physics) and Adrian Beecroft (part-funder of the building).

[5] The building is named after its part-funder Adrian Beecroft.

The building is specifically focused on theoretical, condensed matter and quantum physics.

According to The Daily Telegraph, the funding for this building was inspired by Beecroft's interest in astrophysics.
