===Old Quad===
Following its foundation, the college proceeded to expand around Broadgates, building what is now known as "Old Quad" in the 1600s. Built in stages through the seventeenth century out of the local [[Cotswolds|Cotswold]] [[limestone]], space restrictions saw the south-side of the Quad built directly on top of the old City Wall.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.oxfordhistory.org.uk/city_wall/map.html|title=Oxford City Wall|website=www.oxfordhistory.org.uk}}</ref>

===Chapel Quad===
A Chapel was built in 1732, followed by the introduction of further accommodation in 1846 and the Hall in 1848 to designs by Exeter-based architect [[John Hayward (architect)|John Hayward]],<ref>Oxford: an architectural guide, Geoffrey Tyack. {{ISBN|0-19-817423-3}}, {{ISBN|978-0-19-817423-3}}</ref> together creating "Chapel Quad".<ref name="Buildings">{{cite web| url=http://www.pmb.ox.ac.uk/College/Buildings/index.php| title=Buildings – Pembroke College, University of Oxford| access-date=10 November 2007| url-status=dead| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080501040437/http://www.pmb.ox.ac.uk/College/Buildings/index.php| archive-date=1 May 2008}}</ref> The Chapel was designed and built by William Townsend, although the interior was dramatically revamped by [[Charles Kempe]]—a Pembroke graduate—in 1884. Pembroke alumnus Dr. Damon Wells was a significant benefactor of the college over many years: he funded the restoration of the Chapel in 1972 and again in the 1990s and provided ongoing support to the Chaplaincy and History Fellowship.<ref>{{cite web|title=Dr Damon Wells Hon CBE, Honorary Fellow – Pembroke College, University of Oxford| url=https://www.pmb.ox.ac.uk/news/dr-damon-wells-hon-cbe-honorary-fellow|date=18 October 2021}}</ref> The Chapel, which is still used for regular worship, now bears his name.<ref>{{cite web| url=http://www.pmb.ox.ac.uk/College/The_Chapel/Chapel_History.php| title=Chapel History – Pembroke College, University of Oxford| access-date=10 November 2007| url-status=dead| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080515054641/http://www.pmb.ox.ac.uk/College/The_Chapel/Chapel_History.php| archive-date=15 May 2008}}</ref>

===North Quad===
Further expansion of the College came in the 1960s, after the closure of Beef Lane to the north of Chapel Quad. The private houses north of the closed road were acquired by the college in a piecemeal fashion and reversed so that access was only possible from the rear. The area is now known as "North Quad" and was formally opened in 1962.<ref name="Buildings"/>

===Rokos Quad===

In April 2013 [[Prince Edward, Duke of Kent|HRH The Duke of Kent]] officially opened a new [[Quadrangle (architecture)|quadrangle]] named after the lead donor [[Chris Rokos]]<ref name="Rokos awards">{{cite web|url=https://www.pmb.ox.ac.uk/news/pembroke-undergraduates-support-cutting-edge-research-through-inaugural-rokos-awards |title=Pembroke Undergraduates Support Cutting-Edge Research Through Inaugural Rokos Awards Internships |publisher=pmb.ox.ac.uk|access-date=1 March 2019}}</ref> The new buildings include a 170-seat multi-purpose auditorium, a new café, art gallery, and teaching and function rooms. The development is physically joined to the college's existing city-centre site via a new bridge crossing [[Brewer Street, Oxford|Brewer Street]] and the original medieval city wall, and 'landing' in the old Fellows' Garden adjacent to Chapel Quad.  Having historically been one of the university's dimensionally smaller colleges, following the opening of the new building, undergraduates are now able to live in college premises for all years of study. Postgraduates also benefit from more rooms, and there are six flats for those with partners.<ref name="BGS Architects">{{cite web |url=http://www.bgsarchitects.co.uk/projects/brewer-street-project-pembroke-college-oxford/ |title=Brewer Street Project |publisher=bgsarchitects.co.uk |access-date=28 February 2019 |archive-date=28 February 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190228192005/http://www.bgsarchitects.co.uk/projects/brewer-street-project-pembroke-college-oxford/ |url-status=dead }}</ref>

===Geoffrey Arthur Building=== 
A modern annexe on the banks of the [[River Thames|River Isis]] at [[Grandpont, Oxford|Grandpont]] provides accommodation for around 115 graduates and 40 undergraduates of the college.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2022-04-19 |title=Accommodation for Graduates {{!}} pembroke college |url=https://www.pmb.ox.ac.uk/accommodation-graduates |access-date=2024-03-13 |website=www.pmb.ox.ac.uk |language=en}}</ref> Named the Geoffrey Arthur Building (commonly referred to as "The GAB"), the building is named after the diplomat [[Geoffrey Arthur|Sir Geoffrey Arthur]], Master of the College (1975–1985).<ref>{{cite web| url=http://www.pmb.ox.ac.uk/College/Buildings/Geoffrey_Arthur_Building.php| title=Geoffrey Arthur Building – Pembroke College, Oxford| access-date=10 November 2007| url-status=dead| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080524020250/http://www.pmb.ox.ac.uk/College/Buildings/Geoffrey_Arthur_Building.php| archive-date=24 May 2008}}</ref>
