After curacies at St Barnabas, Clapham Common[4] and St James, Hatcham[5] he was Vicar of St Mark, Kennington.[6] Following this he was Vice-Chairman of the Southwark Diocesan Pastoral Committee and then (his final appointment before elevation to the episcopate) Team Rector of Sanderstead.[7] In retirement he served the Church as an honorary assistant bishop within the Diocese of Leicester. He was a prominent member of the Anglican Pacifist Fellowship.
