Early life
He was educated at City Grammar School, Sheffield;[8] King's College London;[9] St Augustine's College, Canterbury; and York University.[10]
Ordained ministry
Ordained in 1977 he began his career with a curacy in Manchester[11] at St John's Church, Old Trafford and was then successively Vicar at Pendleton; Vicar of St Leonard, Norwood, Sheffield; Rural Dean of Ecclesfield, also Canon of Sheffield Cathedral, and finally (before his ordination to the episcopate) Archdeacon of Stow and Lindsey in the Diocese of Lincoln.
