St Peter's College. This modern structure, by Gillespie, Kidd and Coia, was a Catholic seminary, and dates from 1966. The book "Great Modern Buildings" (Jonathan Glancey) comments: "the low-set and rhythmic four-story addition was in part derived from the forms of Corbusier's Maisons Jaoul and in part by the plan of the monastery at La Tourette". When I took this photo, the site was surrounded by a security fence.
