Educated at Merton College, Oxford,[2][3] he was successively Curate at Sutton in Ashfield, Vicar of St. Peter's Church, Nottingham,[4] then St. Mary's Church, Radcliffe on Trent[5] and Canon of Southwell before his elevation to the Episcopate.[2][6] He retired to Windermere after 14 years in post and died a decade later on 10 March 1968.
