St Peter's College, Oxford

St Peter's College is one of the constituent colleges of the University of Oxford and is located in New Inn Hall Street, Oxford, United Kingdom. It occupies the site of two of the university's oldest inns, both of which were founded in the 13th century. In 1979, it began admitting women. The modern college was founded as St Peter's Hall in 1929 by Francis James Chavasse, Bishop of Liverpool, and achieved full collegiate status in 1961, becoming St Peter's College.
As of 2014, the college had an estimated financial endowment of £29 million.
==History==
St Peter's occupies the site of two of the university's oldest inns, or medieval hostels - Bishop Trilleck's, later New Inn Hall, and Rose Hall - both of which were founded in the 13th century and were part of the university in their own right. During the First English Civil War, the university's college plate was requisitioned by the King's Oxford Parliament and taken to New Inn Hall to be melted down into "Oxford Crowns".〔Clyde L. Grose. ''The Journal of Modern History'', Vol. 4, No. 4 (Dec., 1932), pp. 624-625. Review of Frederick John Varley. ''The Siege of Oxford: An Account of Oxford during the Civil War, 1642-1646''.〕 In the 18th century, William Blackstone became the Principal of New Inn Hall after being appointed the Vinerian Professor of English Law at Oxford. New Inn Hall and Rose Hall later became part of Balliol College.
The modern history of the college in its present form began in 1928 when St Peter's Hall opened as a hostel with 13 residents. In 1929 it received a licence as a hall with 40 members. The founder of the institution was Francis James Chavasse, Bishop of Liverpool, who was concerned at the rising cost of education in the older universities in Britain, and projected St Peter's as a college where promising students, who might otherwise be deterred by the costs of college life elsewhere, could obtain an Oxford education.
In 1961, the university approved a statute giving St Peter's Hall full collegiate status. With the granting of its royal charter in the same year, it took the name St Peter's College.
The colours of the college are green and gold.
Taking the original name of the college, GWR 6959 Class steam locomotive no. 7900 was built in 1949 for British Railways and named "Saint Peter's Hall" (no abbreviation). One of the brass nameplates from the now-scrapped locomotive survives in the college.
