From the Wikipedia article
Western College, in Bristol, England, opened on 27 September 1906 as a theological college for the Congregational Union of England and Wales. The building was designed by the Bristol architect Henry Dare Bryan, and given Grade II* listed status in 1966. It closed in 1968, and the building was subsequently used as the headquarters of the Southern Universities Joint Examination Board, and since 1993 as a medical practice.
