Henry Daysh Building
The Henry Daysh Building of Newcastle University is located on Claremont Road. It was previously known as Claremont Tower, built in 1968, interconnected with the Daysh Building and Claremont Bridge, which spans Claremont Road. The Tower and Bridge were refurbished and renamed the Henry Daysh Building, and reopened in January 2020. It is named after Professor Henry Daysh, appointed in 1930, who went on become the influential head of the Department of Geography (now School of Geography, Politics & Sociology), up until his retirement in 1966.
