New College at Hackney
The New College at Hackney (more ambiguously known as Hackney College) was a dissenting academy set up in Hackney, at that time a village on the outskirts of London, by Unitarians. It was in existence from 1786 to 1796. The writer William Hazlitt was among its pupils, sent aged 15 to prepare for the Unitarian ministry, and some of the best-known Dissenting intellectuals spent time on its staff.〔Herbert J McLachlan, ''The Old Hackney College 1786-1796''; ''Trans. Unitarian Historical Soc.''; 3(1923-26) 185-205.〕
==History==
The year 1786 marked the dissolution of Warrington Academy, which had been inactive since 1756 as a teaching institution. Almost simultaneously the Hoxton Academy of the Coward Trust, under Samuel Morton Savage, closed its doors in the summer of 1785. Some of the funding that had backed Warrington was available for a new dissenting academy for the London area, as well as for a northern successor in Manchester. The London building plans were ambitious, but proved the undoing of the New College, which was soon strained financially.〔David L. Wykes, ''The Dissenting Academy and Rational Dissent'', pp. 131-2 in Knud Haakonssen (editor), ''Enlightenment and Religion: Rational dissent in eighteenth-century Britain'' (1996).〕
The successors in the movement as a whole were Manchester New College, and a new Exeter College under Joseph Bretland, which existed from 1799 to 1805.
