The Diocese of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich is a Church of England diocese based in Ipswich, covering Suffolk (excluding Lowestoft). The cathedral is St Edmundsbury Cathedral, and the bishop is the Bishop of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich. It is part of the Province of Canterbury.
The diocese was formed on 23 January 1914 from parts of the Diocese of Norwich and the Diocese of Ely.[1]
Though the diocesan offices, the bishops' offices and residences are all in Ipswich – only the cathedral (and its offices) are in Bury St Edmunds – the diocese is nonetheless often referred to as St Edmundsbury diocese.[2] Both the diocese[3] and the diocesan bishop[4] are commonly called "(St) Eds and Ips."
Bishops
[edit]Alongside the diocesan Bishop of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich (Martin Seeley), the Diocese has one suffragan bishop: the Bishop suffragan of Dunwich (vacant since 2024). There are also some retired bishops living in the diocese who are licensed as honorary assistant bishops:
- 2008–present: Gavin Reid, former Bishop of Maidstone, lives in Beccles.[5]
- 2008–present: Jeremy Walsh, retired Bishop suffragan of Tewkesbury, lives in Martlesham.[6]
- 2012–present: Retired Dean of St Paul's and former Bishop of Sodor and Man Graeme Knowles lives in Bury St Edmunds (and is also licensed in neighbouring Ely diocese.)[7]
- 2012–present: Former vicar of HTB Sandy Millar lives in Aldeburgh and is also an honorary assistant bishop in London.[8]
- 2015–present: Tim Stevens. retired Bishop of Leicester and former Bishop of Dunwich.[9]
Alternative episcopal oversight (for parishes in the diocese which reject the ministry of priests who are women) is provided by the provincial episcopal visitor, Norman Banks, Bishop suffragan of Richborough, who is licensed as an honorary assistant bishop of the diocese in order to facilitate his work there.
Archdeaconries and deaneries
[edit]The Archdeacon of Ipswich now only has oversight of the Deanery of Ipswich and Inspiring Ipswich mission project.
