3 reviews of St Peter's College

Dates back to the 13th century

St Peter's College is one of the schools that makes up the University of Oxford. It is located behind Bonn Square on New Inn Hall Street. It's located in two old medieval hostels, The Inns, that once served to accommodate students for long periods. The school was created in 1929 and named St. Peter, although part of the university dates back to the thirteenth century. Most of the university's buildings are older than the school itself. The university, instead of constructing new buildings, adapted the buildings that were already on the grounds for its classes. The name of New Inn Hall reminds one of the Inns built on this street.

A younger college

St Peter's College is one of the colleges that make up Oxford University. You can find it behind Bonn Square on New Inn Hall Street. It stands on the site of ancient medieval inns that were used as lodging by students in centuries gone by. It is one of the more modern colleges, founded in 1929, but the site has been used by the university since the thirteenth century. Most of the university buildings are far older than the college. The name of New Inn Hall reminds you of the Inns built in this street, and you can still see a room, the Hannington Hall, where the students continue to eat today. The college chapel is the third church built at that location, dating back to 1874.
