Wild. I grew up in Liverpool and studied Comp Sci there in the mid-1990s, and remember one of the buildings named after Chadwick. But I had lost interested in physics after my A-level, so I can't remember if this was mentioned or if I knew about it.



The Chadwick building is on a different site, if that's not clear, like. Shame on losing interest in Physics!


Chadwick Tower is where the Computer Science department was based at the time, so I was in there most days. It's pretty much opposite the Cathedral in question, with unobstructed line of sight. Building 207 on this map: https://www.liverpool.ac.uk/files/docs/maps/liverpool-univer...

I still use physics as I'm a game developer, it's just that I stopped studying it actively, and instead focused on my computer science degree. Not to worry, I've done OK!
