Random information on the term ” Hall”:

St Edmund Hall (sometimes known as The Hall or informally as Teddy Hall) is a constituent college of the University of Oxford. The college claims to be “the oldest surviving academic society to house and educate undergraduates in any university” and was the last surviving medieval academic hall at the university.

The college is on Queen’s Lane and the High Street, in central Oxford. After more than seven centuries as a men-only college, it became coeducational in 1979. As of 2019, the college had a financial endowment of more than £65 million.

Alumni of St Edmund Hall include diplomats Robert Macaire and Mark Sedwill, and politicians Richard Onslow, 1st Baron Onslow, Keir Starmer and Mel Stride. The elected Honorary Fellows: Faith Wainwright, MBE FREng (1980, Engineering) and the Hon Justice Elizabeth Hollingworth(1984, BCL).

Similar to the University of Oxford itself, the precise date of establishment of St Edmund Hall is not certain; it is usually estimated at 1236, before any other college was formally established, though the founder from whom the Hall takes its name, St Edmund of Abingdon, Oxfordshire, the first known Oxford Master of Arts and the first Oxford-educated Archbishop of Canterbury, lived and taught on the college site as early as the 1190s. The name St Edmund Hall (Aula Sancti Edmundi) first appears in a 1317 rental agreement.Before that, the house appeared as the ‘house of Cowley’ in rental agreements with the abbey. Thomas of Malsbury, the Vicar of Cowley, partially conveyed the site and its buildings to the abbey in 1270-71, having purchased it for eight pounds nine years prior. Cowley fully conveyed the property to the abbey in 1289-90 with an annuity of ‘thirteen shillings and fourpence’, 13s.4d. or 13⧸4 (read as ‘thirteen and four’, i.e. one ‘mark’, a notional value being worth precisely two-thirds of a ₤ Stg) paid to himself and eight shillings for his niece. During the thirteenth century, the university encouraged masters of the arts to rent properties to take in scholars as their tenants. The university preferred such arrangements over private lodgings, which it linked to loose living, poor discipline, public disorder and fighting. Moreover, university-approved accommodation run by approved principals, gave the university more oversight. Principals leased the halls annually and had to present themselves in front of the university’s chancellor in St Mary’s church yearly and guarantee that their hall would pay its rent. Halls whose principals undertook this formality earned recognition as academic halls.John de Cornuba leased the Hall from Osney Abbey, a large Augustinian institution in the neighbouring town of Osney, for thirty-five shillings (i.e. ₤1-15-0 or exactly one and three-quarters of a ₤ Stg) annually.The Abbey’s rent collections varied from fifteen shillings (i.e. 3 crowns or more commonly spoken as three-quarters of a ₤ Stg) for small institutions to four pounds for larger institutions. Judging by the Hall’s annual rent sum, St Edmund’s was a small to medium-sized academic hall at the time. However, by 1324-5 Osney Abbey had raised the Hall’s rent to forty-six shillings and eight pence (i.e. ₤2-6-8, two pounds and a ‘noble’ where the notional value of 6 shillings and eightpence is equal to precisely one-third of a ₤ Stg) while rents for other student hall’s in the city had fallen. The rent increase indicates that the site expanded after 1318. Letters sent to Oseney showed that the abbey gained two additional plots of land and buildings adjacent to the Hall and leased it to St Edmund Hall. The acquisition increased the Hall’s capacity and also gave it access to the well which forms the centrepiece of the quadrangle.
