The Diocese of Truro was formed in 1876 out of the Diocese of Exeter, and the college was established in 1877.[1] It closed in 1900.[2]

The college was an affiliated college of Durham University.[3] It had an academic hood of a full shape black stuff with the cowl lined for four inches of grey fur and the cape edged with one inch of grey fur.[4] In the 1970s a Truro Ordination Course was established, and this revived the college's hood.[5]
