This inn was located in Magdalene Street immediately north of Old Lodge (it's southerly wall where the doors of Benson Hall now open on to the enclosed courtyard), at what used to be 6 Magdalene Street. This inn is listed in a vintner's register of 1511 and was acquired from Trinity College by Thomas Howard, Earl of Suffolk, in 1605. He probably gave it to Magdalene shortly after.
This inn was formerly known as 'The Green Peel' and was located at 7 Magdalene Street where Benson Hall now stands (the name had changed by 1748). It disappears from Commercial Directories in 1873 though it may have survived in some form until A. C. Benson demolished a row of medieval buildings in 1912 prior to rebuilding.

In 1628 Magdalene College bought Half Moon from Simon Prance.
