St Mary's College, Oscott (also called Oscott College) is a Roman Catholic Seminary in Birmingham. The College was founded in 1794 for the training of priests and lay pupils, and quickly became a symbol of the revival of Roman Catholicism in England following the passage of the Catholic Relief Act 1791.
