The close relationship between Abingdon School and Pembroke College resulted in seven Old Abingdonians being appointed as consecutive masters at Pembroke between 1710 and 1843. They were Colwell Brickenden 1709-1714; Matthew Panting, 1714-1738; John Ratcliffe, 1738-1775; William Adams, 1775-1789; Sergrove 1789-1796; John Smyth, 1796-1809 and George William Hall, 1809-1843.[3]

He was rector of St. Aldates's, Oxford (1774-1789), canon of Gloucester (1789), vicar of Penmark and Llantwit Major (1795-1796).
