William Tuckwell
William Tuckwell (1829–1919), who liked to be known as the "radical parson", was a Victorian clergyman well-known on political platforms for his experiments in allotments, his advocacy of land nationalisation, and his enthusiasm for Christian Socialism. He was an advocate of teaching science in the schools.
In 1864 he became head master of King's College, Taunton, and it was recorded that his "energy and vitality" had increased the size and quality of the school. Later he became head master of New College School.
== The ''Reminiscences'' ==
He is best remembered as the author of ''Reminiscences of Oxford'', which records the Oxford of the 1830s, but is somewhat misleading. Owen Chadwick records that he liked to "pretend to be much older than he was. ... What Tuckwell knew about were the fifties and sixties, and his portrait of Tractarian leaders is drawn from experiences in that later time; though quite often he likes to give the impression that it is much earlier."〔Owen Chadwick, ''The spirit of the Oxford movement: tractarian essays'', Cambridge University Press, 1992, p.137.

His daughter was Gertrude Tuckwell, to whom his ''Reminiscences of a radical parson'' was dedicated.
