The South Wales & Monmouthshire Training College was opened on 24 October 1848 in Carmarthen town, with an initial roll of 60 students. It was an Anglican establishment [Church in Wales, not Church of England].
If your man was at the college at the time of the 1851 census he should be easy to find by anyone with access to that census.
good hunting!

Hello Listers.

I am advised that there was a Church of England Teacher Training College
in Carmarthenshire around the late 1840s and the early 1850s. Does
anyone know where it was?

I have lost an ancestor - who would have been in Teacher Training in this
period - he was probably a pupil teacher from 1849 and then would have
been at College in the early 1850s. His name was William HAMILTON
and he was born circa 1836 (in Ireland).

Any suggestions gratefully received.

Regards

Jill FORSTER in Sydney
