BURY College's new £2.8 million centre was completed this week and to mark the occasion Mr Mark Sanders, the new chief executive of Bury Council, buried a time capsule.

It contains copies of the college prospectus and annual report, together with samples of student's work and a message from the principal, Dr Helen Gilchrist.

The new centre, which has not yet been named, is located at the rear of the Millennium Centre.

It will provide teaching facilities for business, business administration, engineering and technology.
