Building works that may affect residences
The University of Exeter continually invests in its properties to provide new facilities and upgrade existing ones.
Work is carefully programmed to avoid disruption to students, particularly during exam periods. However, on occasion there may be some unavoidable disturbance or inconvenience to students.
We will notify you in advance of any significant building works which are in close proximity to your residence and further details will be made available on our website.
If you are concerned about any building works which may be scheduled to take place near your accommodation, please contact the Accommodation Office for information. The University will take all reasonable steps to keep disruption to a minimum and does not give any rent rebates or compensation.
Works planned for 2024/25 and 2025/26
West Park
We are proposing to build the new West Park student residences on our Streatham Campus in the Clydesdale area between Holland Hall, Birks Grange Village and Nash Grove. Holland Hall, Mardon Hall and Nash Grove are in close proximity to the proposed construction area but the University will take all reasonable steps to make sure that disruption is kept to a minimum.
Birks Grange Village
We are proposing to refurbish Birks Grange blocks A-E to create self-catered accommodation and construct a new student residence block where the existing reception and dining hall is currently located.

Al Qasimi research and teaching building
A new research and teaching building is proposed to extend from the Institute of Arab and Islamic Studies (IAIS) in to the Jubilee Gardens. This development is in close proximity to Mardon Hall and Holland Hall. For more information and an update on timescales, please click here.
Other works may take place on an ad-hoc basis throughout the year but at this stage, we are only aware of the works above. We will inform residents in advance of works with as much notice as possible.
