Architect Sheppard Robson designed the building for Leeds Beckett University

Galliford Try has been handed the demolition and build contracts for a new teaching and research building at Leeds Beckett University.

The Sheppard Robson-designed Carnegie Teaching and Research building (pictured), at the university’s Headingley Campus, will house students and academics from the Carnegie School of Sport.

Plans for the building, which will be a base for the school’s undergraduate, postgraduate and research programmes, were given the green light by planners late last month.
