Educated at University College London, made deacon on Trinity Sunday (31 May) 1931[2] and ordained priest the following Trinity Sunday (22 May 1932) — both times by Arthur Winnington-Ingram, Bishop of London, at St Paul's Cathedral.[3] He began his career with a curacy at St Dunstan, Stepney[4] after which he was Missioner at St Nicholas Perivale then Rector of Poplar.
In 1955, he was appointed Bishop suffragan of Taunton[5] and took up his see with his consecration as a bishop on 6 January 1956, by Geoffrey Fisher, Archbishop of Canterbury, at St Paul's Cathedral.[6] In May 1956, he was appointed Rector of Dinder and a Prebendary of Wells Cathedral (remaining Bishop of Taunton).[7] Translated to Hereford in 1961,[8] he retired in 1973 but continued to serve the church as an honorary assistant bishop within the Diocese of London until his death on 23 January 1985,[9] aged 77.
