Description
St Peter's College Dining Hall, built in 1833, is located to the south of the Church of St Peter's-le-Bailey. Originally known as Cramer's building, it was designed by architect Thomas Greenshields and constructed under the direction of Dr J A Cramer, who was the Principal of New Inn Hall from 1831 to 1847. The building was remodeled in 1879 to serve as a hall in memory of James Hannington, Bishop of Eastern Equatorial Africa, and included a parochial school built behind it. Both the hall and the school were transferred to St Peter's College in 1928, after which the school was relocated and Hannington Hall became the college's dining hall. The structure features a two-storey façade made of Bath ashlar, with four pilaster strips, a dentilled cornice, a parapet, and windows that are both mullioned and transomed. The building underwent alterations in 1971.
