As someone who studied in Stafford I am a bit sad about this although the site that I was based at (Blackheath Lane) is staying. It housed the computing department when I was there but is now Health Sciences. I really enjoyed being in Stafford and I hope the move doesn't impact the local economy too badly.

I taught at Stafford some time ago! Hey ho.
