1 Cowley Place Guest House (Magdalen College), Oxford

Geschichte

Magdalen College was founded in 1458 by William Waynflete , Bishop of Winchester and Lord Chancellor, on site of the Hospital of St John, just outside Oxford's East Gate.

Several additions were made after Waynflete's death in 1486 in 1492, the foundation stone was laid for a grand new bell tower, 144 feet high. The high street range, and gargoyles in the cloister followed. In the early 1730s Edward Holdsworth designed a grand new quadrangle, but only in the north range, the New Building was never completed.
