Working Men's College, education and social reform, 1854-1912

The Working Men's College was founded in 1854 by social reformers John Frederick Denison Maurice, John Malcolm Ludlow, Charles Kingsley, Frederick Furnivall and others to promote regular and organised education amongst working class men (women's classes began in 1856). The classes were not intended to be a series of miscellaneous lectures as taught at the Mechanics Institutes, but structured courses comparable to those run by larger established universities such as University College London and King's College London. The college is still extant, and is now situated in Crowndale Road, North London.
