The Houses for Visiting Mathematicians (also known as the Mathematics Research Centre houses) are a set of five houses and two flats, built for academics attending mathematical conferences at the University of Warwick.
The buildings are Grade II* listed and were built between 1968 and 1969 to the design of architect Bill Howell and were opened in June of that year by then Vice-Chancellor Jack Butterworth, Sir Christopher Zeeman and Bill Howell. Their construction was supported by a £50,000 grant from the Nuffield Foundation. In 1970, they received the RIBA Architecture Award.
