Allen Beville Ramsay

Allen Beville Ramsay (3 August 1872 – 20 September 1955) was an English academic and Latin poet.

He was the son of Beville and Sarah Maria Ramsay of Croughton House, Brackley, Northamptonshire.

The College Fellows preferred another candidate, A. S. Ramsey, but the Hereditary Visitor of Magdalene, Lord Braybrooke chose to appoint Ramsay.

Ramsay Hall, the largest room in Bright's Building in Magdalene, is named after him; it was refurbished in 1949 to become the college canteen.

He published collections of Latin and English verse with botanically inspired titles: Inter Lilia (1920), Ros Rosarum (1925), Frondes Salicis (1935), Flos Malvae (1946), and Ros Maris (1954).
