St Salvator's Hall
St Salvator's Hall (affectionately known as Sallies) is a student hall of residence at the University of St Andrews. It lies close to the quadrangle of the United College, St Andrews and St Salvator's Chapel, a foundation which was endowed by King James II of Scotland. The Hall is in an area between North Street and The Scores. Architecturally, it has been described as a "rambling Gothic dormitory". The stained glass windows of the hall and the paintings in its oak-panelled dining room feature associates and benefactors of the University of St Andrews, such as David Beaton, James Graham, 1st Marquess of Montrose and Edward Harkness. The hall has had a history of health disasters. These include an incident of mass poisoning with arsenic trioxide in January 1945 and the contamination of the hall's water supply with Legionella bacteria in November 2020.
