Don't forget to check out the photos of the staff of the Department of Applied Physics in 1986 (WARNING: rather scary!) and the page with historical laboratory photos from the Department of Natural Philosophy, Physics, and Applied Physics, which includes a number of photos from the 1980s taken by Ivan Ruddock.
