The Department of Pure Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics (DPMMS) was created in 1964 under the headship of Sir William Hodge. It was housed in a converted warehouse at 16 Mill Lane, adjacent to its sister department DAMTP, until its move around 2000 to the present Centre for Mathematical Sciences where it occupies Pavilions C, D, and E. Heads of department • 1964–1969 W. V. D. Hodge • 1969–1984 J. W. S. Cassels • 1984–1991 D. J. H. Garling • 1991–1997 John H. Coates • 1997–2002 W. B. R.

It was created in 1947 with accommodation in a "temporary hut", and was established on 21 March 1953 within the Faculty of Mathematics. It moved in 1958 to the basement of the new Chemistry Department in Lensfield Road, and then formed part of the new Department (DPMMS) in Mill Lane on its creation in 1964. It occupies Pavilion D of the Centre for Mathematical Sciences. Directors of the Statistical Laboratory • 1953–1956 John Wishart • 1956–1957 Henry Daniels, Acting Director • 1957–1960 Dennis Lindley • 1960–1962 Morris Walker, Acting Director • 1962–1973 David Kendall • 1973–1987 Peter Whittle • 1987–1991 David Williams • 1991–1993 Frank Kelly • 1994–2000 Geoffrey Grimmett • 2000–2009 Richard Weber • 2009–2017 James Norris • 2017– Richard Samworth ==Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics==

. The Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics (DAMTP) was founded by George Batchelor in 1959, and for many years was situated on Silver Street, in the former office buildings of Cambridge University Press. However since the opening of the Isaac Newton Institute in 1991, the Department has been located at the Centre for Mathematical Sciences (Cambridge). Theoretical Physics (including cosmology, relativity, and high energy physics) occupies most of Pavilion B, while Applied Mathematics (including fluid dynamics and solid mechanics) occupies most of Pavilions F, G, and H. Heads of department • 1959–1983 George Batchelor • 1983–1991 Keith Moffatt • 1991–2000 David Crighton • 2000–2005 Timothy J.
