Elphinstone Hall

It is a 20th-century building which replaced the "Common Hall" and is named after Bishop William Elphinstone, the founder of the University.

An arcade dominates the front of the building, behind which lie a reception area and then the large, wood-panelled hall with hammerbeam roof.

Portraits of founding fathers of the university and other key figures from its history line the walls.

In front of the hall is a large lawn, which is popular with students and staff of the university in summer.

It is the location of a number of student-run ceilidhs throughout the year, including those of the International and Celtic Societies, as well as other student events.
