The University of Southampton has its starting as the Hartley Institution which was surrounded in 1862 from an award by Henry Robinson Hartley (1777–1850). Hartley had obtained a fortune from two periods of productive wine dealers. At his going in 1850, he left an enrichment of £103,000 toward the Southampton Corporation for the study and movement of the sciences in his property on Southampton's High Street, in the downtown range.
artley was a flighty straggler, who had little adoring of the new age docks and railways in Southampton. He didn't yearning to make a school for a few (as encircled at near time in other English present day towns and business ports) yet a social group for Southampton's academic world class. After extended honest to goodness challenges to the Bequest, and an open prudent discourse in appreciation to how best translate the vernacular of his Will, the Southampton Corporation make the Institute (rather than a more extensively accessible school, that some open figures had battled for).
On 15 October 1862, the Hartley Institute was opened by the Prime Minister Lord Palmerston in an important city occasion which surpassed in radiance anything that anyone in the town could recall.

This was after survey of the training and subsidizes by the University College Grants Committee, and endowments from Council people (numbering William Darwin the then Treasurer). An augmentation in understudy numbers in the following years impelled raising cash tries to move the school to greenfield land around Back Lane (now University Road) in the Highfield area of Southampton. On 20 June 1914, Viscount Haldane opened the new site of the renamed Southampton University College. Regardless, the scene of the First World War six weeks sometime later inferred no locations could happen there, as the structures were given over by the school powers for use as a military facility. To adjust to the volume of mishaps, wooden lodges were raised at the back of the building. These were given to school by the War Office after the end of engaging, in time for the trade from the more responsible option premises in 1920. At this moment, Highfield Hall, a past country house and sitting above Southampton Common, for which a rent had before been secured, begun use as a passageways of home for female understudies. South Hill, on what is in a matter of seconds the Glen Eyre Halls Complex was similarly picked up, nearby South Stoneham House to house male understudies.
