Description
Whitefields is ideally located for the facilities on central campus such as the Students’ Union and for academic departments on both the main campus and the Gibbet Hill campus. Whitefields is divided into 17 self-contained houses for 9-12 persons and is the only hall of this type on campus. These houses help to foster a sense of ownership over the living space as well as promoting a homely feel. Members of the Residential Life Team live on site to provide pastoral care and help foster a sense of community.
