A village in Staffordshire, 4 m. N. of Birmingham, the site of the Roman Catholic Col lege of St. Mary's, which claims to be the centre of Catholicism in England; founded in 1752, it was housed in magnificent buildings in 1835, and became exclusively a training-school for the priesthood in 1889, though it originally had laymen among its students.
