Proposals to build new student accommodation at St Cross College were refused by councillors last night.
The college in St Giles wanted to build 53 study bedrooms, a lecture theatre, library, seminar rooms and ancillary accommodation.
The application was refused at the West Area Planning Committee at Oxford Town Hall after concerns from the Victorian Society, Oxford Preservation Trust and the Oxford Civic Society.
