You enter the well-manicured lawn of St Salvator’s Quad after walking through the University of St Andrews’s main gate on North Street. The prominent anchor is the Lower & Upper College Halls, now reserved for special events such as weddings. The school began in 1410, was chartered by local Bishop Henry Wardlaw in 1411 and officially approved by Pope Benedict XIII in 1413. This history makes it the world’s third oldest, English speaking university.
