Bishop Cosin's Hall, Grade II* listed academic building on Palace Green, Durham, England.
Bishop Cosin's Hall features a symmetrical Georgian facade with rectangular windows and sturdy brick construction, standing near Durham Cathedral and Castle.
The structure began as the Archdeacon's Inn around 1700 and later transformed into university accommodation during the 1830s, gaining its current name.
The Hall houses Durham University's Institute of Advanced Study, where researchers from multiple disciplines gather to explore intellectual and scientific themes.
The building maintains its educational function within Durham University, offering spaces for academic research and collaborative intellectual activities.
The Hall marked an architectural shift in Durham as one of the first brick buildings in an area previously dominated by stone construction.
