Read the passage below about a college in the city of Bath, written in 1985, and answer the questions that follow.
The college has the advantage of location in one of the most attractive cities in the country. Within the city of Bath it occupies modem buildings in a landscaped garden on Sion Hill, Lansdown and an adjacent Georgian Crescent, Somerset Crescent, which includes teaching and residential accommodation for post-graduate studies. It also occupies three houses in Sydney Place, which are used for studio and workshop accommodation for part-time courses in the Visual Arts and for the Foundation Course in Art and Design.
The Newton Park site is situated four miles west of Bath between the villages of Newton St Loe and Corston. Within the grounds are a Georgian mansion, where the colleges central administration is located, an Elizabethan dairy, stables and the tower of a medieval manor house: all these older buildings have been adapted to present-day use. A new purpose-built Home Economics block was opened in January 1985. During 1986 a new Sports hall will be completed and new residential blocks are under construction to be completed ready for the start of the academic year in September 1986; a new Music block will be completed in 1987.
The Art and Design degree courses which are currently accommodated at Corsham, about nine miles east of Bath, will be moved to the Sion Hill site in Bath by September 1986 thus reinforcing Faculty and Course links.
