The 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1689_Baptist_Confession_of_Faith
The 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith was written by Calvinistic Baptists in England to give a formal expression of the Reformed and Protestant Christian faith with an obvious Baptist perspective. This confession, like The Westminster Confession of Faith (1646) and the Savoy Declaration (1658), was written by evangelical Puritans who were concerned that their particular church organisation reflect what they perceived to be Biblical teaching.

http://www.rpc.ox.ac.uk/
The story of Regent’s Park College began with the creation of the London Baptist Education Society in 1752, a venture which developed into a College with its own buildings in Stepney, London, in 1810. In 1856 it moved to Regent’s Park, London, from whence it still derives its name. In the nineteenth century the College both prepared candidates for the ordained ministry in Baptist churches in Britain and overseas, and also offered a University-level education to other students who took degrees in the Arts and Law. The College had been affiliated to the newly-formed University of London as early as 1841, and in 1901 became a Divinity School of the University. In 1927 it moved to its third site, in Oxford, and in 1957 became a ‘Permanent Private Hall’ of the University of Oxford.
