The Catholic halls

Description

Dominican friars returned to Oxford in 1921 and established their new priory within 600 metres of the original site at St Giles. In 1929, they re-established the Dominican Studium in the priory, and in 1994 Blackfriars joined the University as a Permanent Private Hall, retaining the Stadium independently for training priests.
