He was born into a distinguished clerical family[3] at Brathay, Windermere in 1863 and educated at Uppingham and Christ Church, Oxford. Ordained in 1887[4] he began his career with a Curacy at St Mary, South Shields[5] and was then successively Chaplain to the Bishop of Durham, Vicar (then Archdeacon) of Barrow-in-Furness before ascending to the Episcopate, where he was to serve in three posts until retirement.[6]
A staunch advocate of missionary service,[7] he married late in life[8] and died on 19 March 1942.
