Description
Magdalen College's New Buildings, constructed in 1733, are located to the north of the Great Quadrangle. Designed by William Townesend with the approval of James Gibbs and Francis Smith, the buildings are made of Headington stone, with Richard Piddington and William King as the masons. The east and west wings were faced in ashlar in 1824 by Thomas Harrison of Chester. In 1925, the buildings were refaced in Box Ground ashlar, incorporating Clipsham, Elm Park, and Portland stone.
