The hall was an independent academic hall that developed from Magdalen College School, not the earlier Magdalen Hall founded by William Waynflete. Most of Magdalen Hall's buildings were destroyed by fire in 1820, though the Grammar Hall survived and was restored by Joseph Parkinson.

Magdalen Hall and MCS. Magdalen College shares historical links with two other institutions: Magdalen Hall and Magdalen College School (MCS). The original Magdalen Hall was established by our founder, William Waynflete (c. 1398-1486), and was located further up the High Street.
Em 1816, o local da faculdade foi doado para Magdalen Hall, que começou como uma escola secundária associada ao Magdalen College em 1480. Magdalen Hall mudou-se para o local da antiga faculdade em 1822 e, em 1874, foi fundado como Hertford College.
Led by Principal Macbride, Magdalen Hall took possession of the Hertford College site in 1822 upon the completion of two new wings fronting Catte Street (the front of OB1 and the Old Lodgings). With Magdalen Hall came its remarkable library of rare books, previously housed in the Old Library and now in the Old Lodgings' Henry Wilkinson Room.
Magdelen College succeeded a university hall called Magdelen Hall, which had been founded by Waynflete in 1448. Most of the college’s earliest scholars came from the hall. The college took over the site of St John the Baptism Hospital, alongside the River Cherwell.
Magdalen College should not be confused with Magdalen Hall. Magdalen Hall, which was founded in the early sixteenth century, was situated alongside Magdalen College for many years, but was a totally separate institution.
