60/61 to 72: Magdalen College houses


Magdalen Gate House facing Rose Lane (No. 61, but formerly numbered 60) and the adjoining terrace of eleven houses (Nos. 62–72) belong to Magdalen College. These houses were rebuilt some time after the widening of Magdalen Bridge that took place in 1772–8.
All twelve houses are Grade II listed, and were in St Peter-in-the East parish until that parish was united with St Cross parish in 1957.
