The North Wall is owned and managed by St Edward's School, an independent, co-educational boarding school which was founded in 1863 in the centre of Oxford, and moved to its present site in Summertown in 1873. A vigorous 15-year building programme then followed, during which all the Victorian buildings which you see today were completed. The last of these was an indoor swimming pool, which was completed in 1888.

The North Wall was opened for school use in September 2006, and was launched publicly in July 2007 with a three-week arts festival. It now runs a programme of arts events open to the public throughout the year, as well as providing an outstanding facility for the School and the local community.
