First Court is the oldest part of College and distinctive for it's circular lawn. The buildings include the Chapel, the master's lodge, the Hall, the café and bar (we call this the Buttery), undergraduate accommodation, Darwin's old room, and the way through to Library Court, with the Working Library (the main library for students), Old Library and prayer room. F staircase has a passage through to Second Court as well as the Old Combination Room (OCR).
