Discover University set in England

I'll have to buy it then! It's home to me. Britechester is based on England and the weather will reflect that. It is a typically rainy, cloudy world.

What I particularly liked: The Repo man is back if you get into debt and the robots. I wonder if I could get an army of them to take over the world? One rainy day though, oops, they are all busted!

And so, while such architecture is found in British universities, they are also stateside as well.

It's found in Aussie land too.

Seems to be what you end up with, when your uni was built in the 1800's, or earlier.

I suppose if you have benevolently donated all the money to build them you want it to be noticed! I believe it's called "Collegiate Gothic" just waiting for bits to fall off now as too expensive to maintain! :D

That perfectly describes the style!
It's modern (ish) universities that have their design influenced by the buildings in medieval universities.
