Description

The technical college was built in 1969 by competition winners Patton & Partners Architects. The UAHS list of Enniskillen 1973, 40 notes that it is a "powerful composition of blocks around and open quad, dominating the Gaol Square." The building is an important structure on the former Gaol site, however now the building is vacant as the college campus is soon to move to a new site. In the meantime the building is suffering due to its vacancy and lack of use. Refs: Dixon, H. 1973 Buildings of Enniskillen, UAHS, 40.
