The Peckwater Quadrangle is one of the quadrangles of Christ Church, Oxford. It is a Grade I listed building. Peckwater Quad is on the site of a medieval inn, which was run by the Peckwater family until 1246. The buildings on the north, east and west sides of the Quadrangle were designed by Henry Aldrich and built by William Townesend between 1706 and 1711. They constitute one of the earliest examples of English neo-Palladian architecture. First floor rooms in this quad have traditionally been sought after by undergraduates of the college due to their size, oak panelling and high ceilings.
