Edward Pugh
William Edward Augustus Pugh (known as Edward;[1] 22 July 1909 – 4 January 1986) was the fifth Bishop of Penrith in the modern era.[2]
He was educated at Leeds University[3] and the College of the Resurrection, Mirfield.[4] Ordained in 1934 he began his career with a curacy at Staveley, Derbyshire. From here he became Vicar of Norwell, Nottinghamshire[5] and then Harrington, Cumbria along with his appointment as the first Archdeacon of West Cumberland.[6] Appointment to the episcopate followed in 1970 — he was consecrated at York Minster on Michaelmas day (29 September) 1970[7] — and he retired nine years later.
