Did you know?
This room was named after Harry Boot, one of the developers of the cavity magnetron which became a key to Allied victory in World War Two.
A Birmingham Native, Boot carried out his valuable work on the cavity magnetron at the University of Birmingham, which makes the Boot Room a fitting tribute to his scientific discoveries in the heart of the city.
