This new college provides secure, high quality training facilities for Officers of all 3 Armed Services in Watchfield. The complex consists of lecture halls, study areas and living accommodation and is based on a series of 3 storey cruciform buildings radiating from a circular rotunda with extensive use of courtyards to create a collegiate ambience. A central concept reflects the geometry and forms of the ancient standing stone circles.
