The name 'University House' was originally given to a rented building on Hagley Road in 1908. The present building was constructed in 1912 as a residence for female students at the university. Margery Fry was UH's first warden, from its beginnings at Hagley Road, and remained in post until 1914.^[3][4] Rose Sidgwick, lecturer in History at the university, managed the UH library and was commemorated after her death in the 1918 flu pandemic by an ornamental birdbath in the gardens.^[4][5] In 1964, the hall became one of the UK's first mixed-sex university residences.^[3][4] It remained so until its closure as a residence in July 2002.

Archives of University House as a hall of residence and of the University House Association are held at the University of Birmingham Library.^[4]
