In September 1908 the Society of African Missions opened Ballinafad College to accommodate students preparing for the missionary priesthood as a secondary school or minor seminary. The original house was a gift to the society by Llewellyn Count Blake in May of that year. The society itself was founded in France in 1856 and came to Ireland (to Cork) in 1876.
