'''Latimer Neville, 6th Baron Braybrooke''' (22 April 1827 – 12 January 1904), styled [[The Honourable|The Hon.]] '''Latimer Neville''' until 1902, was a British peer, clergyman and academic, for half a century Master of [[Magdalene College, Cambridge]].
Neville was the fourth son of [[Richard Griffin, 3rd Baron Braybrooke]]. He was educated at [[Eton College]] and [[Magdalene College, Cambridge]], matriculating in 1845 aged 18, gaining a Fellowship in 1848, and graduating [[Master of Arts (Oxford, Cambridge, and Dublin)|M.A.]] in 1849. He was ordained deacon in 1850 and priest in 1851.<ref name="venn"></ref>
Neville's father Lord Braybrooke was the Visitor of Magdalene College; his uncle [[George Neville-Grenville]] was the Master. In 1846 Neville-Grenville was appointed [[Dean of Windsor]] and offered to resign the Mastership; Lord Braybrooke, as Visitor, refused the resignation, intending that Latimer Neville (then aged 19) should eventually succeed him as Master. With some diplomacy needed to manage the Fellowship, this transition was achieved in 1853, and Latimer Neville became Master at the age of 26.<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 2)</ref>
