Description

Jesus College's South Range in the First Quadrangle dates back to 1485. The eastern part, likely up to No 4 stair, was constructed by Price in the late 16th century. The western section was originally occupied by the earlier White Hall, which was replaced around 1617 by the current structure. The exterior was refaced in 1835 using Bath stone.
