Trinity UK, Lampeter

LOCATION

Lampeter is in the Ceredigion area, on the west coast of Wales, is one of Wales’s most popular holiday areas. Named after Prince Ceredig, Ceredigion is sheltered from the east by the Cambrian Mountains and stretches to the
shores of Cardigan Bay (Bae Ceredigion).
Founded by Royal Charter in 1822, the Lampeter Campus is the oldest college establishment in Britain after Oxford and Cambridge. Until the 1970s it was a training centre for Anglican priests and today specialises in Humanities, offering Archaeology, Anthropology, Ancient Egyptian Culture, Classical Studies, Philosophy as well as Religious Studies. The University link brought the game of rugby to Lampeter, when a Professor introduced the game to the college in the 1850s. In 1881, Lampeter was one of the founding members of the Welsh Rugby Union.
