Goodwin Sports Centre

Its facilities include a multi-use games area, gym, sports hall and several synthetic pitches.

The facilities were largely constructed in the 1960s, funded by the head of the Neepsend Tool and Steel Corporation, Sir Stuart Goodwin.

He approached the university with £30,000 of financial support towards building a sports hall after discovering that the existing gymnasium on the Western Bank part of the campus would be demolished.

At the opening ceremony for the pool, he surprised people further by pledging to fund squash courts and indoor cricket wickets.
