FROM ST EDMUND HALL TO MAGDALEN COLLEGE

Round the corner in the High, on the far side of the road, are the new Examination Schools where all university examinations are now held. There are two panels over the main door, one showing a viva voce examination, the other a degree ceremony.

A few yards east of the point where Merton Street runs into High Street from the south, the East Gate stood across the road. (From Goulder, Pilgrimage Pamphlets: Oxford & Cambridge, 1963)
