Peel Building, Grade II listed university building in Salford, England
The Peel Building is a Grade II listed university structure in Salford, constructed in 1896 with red Accrington bricks and terracotta ornaments on its facade. Inside, it contains multiple lecture theaters and adaptable classrooms designed to serve different group sizes.
The building began as the Salford Royal Technical Institute in 1896 and carries the Peel Building name today. Royal figures attended its official opening ceremony, marking its importance in the university's founding years.
The Peel Hall is a room inside where live performances and recordings happen regularly, giving the space an active role in the university's artistic life.
Visitors can explore the interior during campus hours, especially when events happen in Peel Hall throughout the year. Checking with the university about guided tours or scheduled performances is the best way to experience the full building.
This is the oldest building still in use at the University of Salford, standing for more than a century as the institution grew around it. Its continued operation shows how well-constructed the original structures were.
