Newcastle Polytechnic

Newcastle Polytechnic, now known as Northumbria University, was founded in 1969 and incorporated the Rutherford College of Technology.

As of now, the university is still operational and has undergone significant development, with ongoing refurbishment of existing teaching facilities and unification of the city center sites into one integrated campus 7.

The concert is referenced in a blog post on My Vintage Rock, which includes an extract from a book about The Clash. The post mentions that there was violence and fighting at the gig, and that Richard Hell had a firework thrown in his face 1.
