When it was built in 1889 the Great Hall was the largest college hall in Cambridge. It was designed in an American gothic style and still has the standard medieval layout of a college hall.
The wooden panelling around the high walls, with paintings of previous (and current) college principals watching over events lends the hall a sense of magnificent history and authority.
It can accommodate a wide variety of events including balls, awards ceremonies, annual dinners and wedding receptions for between 100 and 270 guests.
