Redwood Building

Redwood Building

The Redwood Building. Opened in 1960, it was named after Theophilus Redwood, a founding father of the Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain. Above the entrance a large relief sculpture shows an elderly toga-clad person, surrounded by books and a globe, reaching out protectively over a youthful scientist and a nurse. The building is situated in Cardiff's civic centre in Cathays Park.

The building was part of the University of Wales Institute of Science and Technology "(UWIST)", which merged into the University of Wales College Cardiff. It is now part of Cardiff University.
