Refurbishment works
During the 2024-25 and 2025-26 academic years, essential internal maintenance repairs across the seven buildings which make up Loring Hall are due to take place.
The main works within each flat should take around 2–3 weeks, during which, some noise and disruption are to be expected.
Our priority is to minimise any disruption or inconvenience to students, and we will ensure residents are kept regularly updated as more information becomes available.
