Corsham Court Centre
The University's Corsham Court Centre has been established with an emphasis on postgraduate study, research and educational development.
Corsham Court belongs to the Methuen family and is the former home of the Bath Academy of Art. The Academy moved to the Court in 1946 and provided higher education in the subject areas of specialist art and design, teacher training, performing arts and combined arts. Bath Spa University retains the long term lease of the Court.
The main features of University work at the Centre include:
- A suite of high quality meeting rooms for use by all Schools and Departments. These are bookable either through the central booking system or by contacting the Centre Administrator. (A full catering service is available, and cafes and pubs are within easy walking distance).
- Post graduate workshops, studios and seminar rooms providing facilities for the academic Schools.
- Individual study spaces for Masters and PhD research students.
- A support service for the development of funding bids to external agencies.
- Specialist studio accommodation for post graduate students in the Bath School of Art & Design.
- Individual studios and study facilities rented to academic staff at a subsidised rate in support of scholarship and research.
- A gallery and project room bookable by all academic Schools by the day or week in support of undergraduate and postgraduate curriculum activities.
In addition to our accommodation, the formal gardens and grounds are available to University users. They are to be found on the North side of the Court (the drive is on the South side). Access to the State Rooms for teaching, for study of the picture collection, or for tours can be made available to University staff and students by prior arrangement and at no charge within the terms of the University's Lease.
