Queen Margaret Hall (student hall of residence : 1894- : University of Glasgow, Scotland)

Queen Margaret Hall , Bute Gardens, was established in 1894 by the Queen Margaret College Students' Union Association and was transferred to the University in 1924 . A house at No 1 Lilybank Terrace, which was given to the University by Mr J M Robertson and opened as a hall of residence in 1926, subsequently became an annexe to Queen Margaret Hall. In 1946 Galloway House and Melville House, both in Bute Gardens, were opened as additional annexes to the Hall.

By 1952 there was accommodation for 90 female students in both the Hall and the annexes. Accommodation comprised of single or shared study-bedrooms, and there were common rooms in all houses. Meals were taken in the central dining hall and all students had full use of the library and the hall grounds. The Hall was under the control of a Hostels' Committee appointed by the University Court, and was in the charge of a resident warden. Each of the annexes was in the care of a resident House-tutor. The domestic arrangements were supervised by the Domestic Bursar and an assistant. A students' house committee was elected annually and largely controlled the social activities of the Hall.
