St Catherine's Society[edit]

Would somebody in a position to do it please add some history of St Catherine's Society.

St Cross Church[edit]

Jacobsen's plans for the college did not include a chapel: St Cross church on the corner of Manor Road and Longwall Street serves this purpose when required.

St Cross Church is no longer used by St Catz. The Parochial Church Council of St Cross decided to allow Balliol to convert the church into its College Historic Collections Centre. The Chapel belonging to Harris Manchester College is now used when required.

Bike shed[edit]

I've now worked up a short article on the college bike shed, St Catherine's College Bicycle Store. Reading around the topic, there is actually more than enough sourcing to warrant a separate article on St Catz's buildings. That said, the existing coverage of the college's article is rather good. Far better than for many Oxbridge colleges. KJP1 (talk) 18:04, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
