History

St Hugh's College, founded in 1886 was originally a women's only college (as was Somerville College, St Anne's College, Lady Margaret Hall and St Hilda's College), although it became coeducational in 1986.

The college was founded by Elizabeth Wordsworth, a great niece of the famous poet. The name of the college was that of Hugh of Avalon who was canonized in 1220.
