android view onkeydown,Android Webview onKeyDown force closes app

Basically I have a simple webview app I'm making for a university project and I know almost nothing about coding. The webview works and loads other links still in my app as expected but the back button doesn't navigate to the previous page, it just force closes the app and a message pops up saying 'Unfortunately, 'Broadbent Studios has stopped'. If I just get rid of the code for the back button the app works fine but then I can't use the back button like you can in a web browser, which would be better.

I've tried different methods that I have on here but none have worked, this has been the best as eclipse gives no errors, but clearly something is wrong.

package com.broadbentstudios;

import android.annotation.SuppressLint;

import android.app.Activity;

import android.os.Bundle;

import android.view.Window;

import android.webkit.WebView;

import android.webkit.WebViewClient;

import android.view.KeyEvent;

public class BroadbentStudios extends Activity

{

final Activity activity = this;

WebView WebView;

@SuppressLint("SetJavaScriptEnabled")

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)

{

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

this.getWindow().requestFeature(Window.FEATURE_PROGRESS);

setContentView(R.layout.main);

WebView webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.mainWebView);

webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);

webView.getSettings().setUseWideViewPort(true);

webView.loadUrl("http://www.bsstudios.portfoliobox.me");

webView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {

@Override

public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url)

{

view.loadUrl(url);

return true;

}

});

}

@Override

public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {

if ((keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) && WebView.canGoBack()) {

WebView.goBack();

return true;

}

return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);

}

}
