History
Although the college occupies the site of 2 of Oxford's oldest medieval inns or hostels (one of which was New Inn Hall) dating back to the thirteenth century, its history really began in 1929 when St. Peter's Hall was founded by Francis James Chavasse, Bishop of Liverpool. In 1961 St. Peter's Hall was given full collegiate status by the University, and being granted its Royal Charter in the same year, it took the name St. Peter's College. Notable Former Students
