The Firth Court quadrangle is composed of Firth Hall, North Block and West Block of Firth Court, and the adjoining Florey and Addison buildings.
Firth Hall is the original Firth Court block (known formerly as the Western Bank Building) opened in 1905.
The North Block and the West Block was completed in 1914 also by Gibbs, forming three sides of a quadrangle.
Gibbs planned to build a double quadrangle within the complex, but this was never happened.
The forth and the final side of the formal quadrangle was completed with the addition of the Florey and Addison buildings in the late 1940s.
During the Second World War, the quadrangle was converted into an air raid shelter.
The Firth Court main block, the rotunda and the quadrangle are listed Grade II, yet the Florey and Addison buildings are unlisted.
