This ancient title, first used in 909 AD, means that Bishop Edward is responsible for the Wiltshire parts of the Diocese of Salisbury (as well as one parish in Dorset and four in Hampshire). 

He was ordained in 1982, after studying for a doctorate at Exeter College, Oxford. He has been a parish priest in rural, suburban and urban parishes. In Salisbury he is particularly keen to promote the rural church. He was previously Canon Treasurer at Canterbury Cathedral where he was among other things responsible for the training of Bishops and Priests from around the worldwide Anglican Communion. 

Bishop Edward is married to Sarah. They have four grown up children. He claims to have played just about every sport apart from golf and beach volleyball. He is a keen cyclist for mental, spiritual and environmental reasons. He is currently training for a possible world record attempt on the Concept2 rowing machine

Bishop Edward gave up his car for Lent two years in a row, and started this blog to document the experience, which he keeps up to date occasionally.

The first Bishop of Ramsbury was Aethelstan, appointed in 909. For a full list of Bishops, click here.
