===Chapel=== Built between 1438 and 1442, the college chapel remained largely unchanged until the [[Commonwealth of England, Scotland and Ireland|Commonwealth]]. Oxford, having been a largely [[Royalist]] stronghold, suffered under the [[Puritan]]s' wrath. The 42 [[misericord]]s date from the Chapel's building, and show a resemblance to the misericords at [[St Mary's Church, Higham Ferrers]]. Both may have been carved by Richard Tyllock.{{fact|date=March 2021}} During the 1660s a screen was installed in the Chapel, which was based on a design by Wren. However, this screen needed to be rebuilt by 1713. By the mid-19th century the Chapel was in great need of renovation, and so the current structure is heavily influenced by Victorian design ideals.{{fact|date=March 2021}} There have been a number of rearrangements and repairs of the stained glass windows, but much of the original medieval glass survives.<ref>{{cite book|last=Hutchinson |first=F. E. |title=Medieval Glass at All Souls College |publisher= Faber and Faber|location = London, UK|year=1949|oclc=1269744}}</ref> All services at the chapel are according to the ''[[Book of Common Prayer]]''; the ''[[King James Bible]]'' is also used rather than more modern translations.<ref>{{cite web |title=The Chapel |url=https://www.asc.ox.ac.uk/chapel-allsouls |publisher=All Souls College |access-date=31 August 2017 |archive-date=7 August 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200807201844/https://www.asc.ox.ac.uk/chapel-allsouls |url-status=dead }}</ref>
