New College, College of the University of Oxford in central Oxford, England
The college features tall medieval walls, stone buildings arranged around quads, extensive gardens, and cloisters designed by architect William Wynford in Gothic style.
William of Wykeham established New College in 1379, marking it as one of the earliest colleges founded within the University of Oxford's educational framework.
The New College Choir performs regular concerts in the chapel, maintaining a musical tradition that spans more than six centuries of classical performances.
Students receive accommodation in the central college buildings during their first year, with meals served daily in the medieval dining hall.
The college maintains a section of the original Oxford city wall from the 13th century, which requires annual inspection through an ancient ceremony.
