St Peter's College was founded in 1929 by Francis James Chavasse, Bishop of Liverpool, and became a full College of Oxford University in 1961. The site, part of which was the medieval New Inn Hall, is bordered on the west by the line of the old city wall. The entrance to the College is in the Georgian style Linton House - formerly a rectory but originally built as the offices of the Oxford Canal Company. The former parish church of St Peter-le-Bailey, built in 1874 by Basil Champneys, is now the College Chapel. The College Dining Hall, known as Hannington Hall after the Victorian missionary, Bishop James Hannington, dates from 1832 and is the only surviving part of New Inn Hall. The Chavasse Building is to the left of this with a white painted belfry. It was previously the Central School for Girls, designed in 1899 in the Arts and Crafts style by Leonard Stokes.
