I am the Team Rector of Rye Team Ministry, in the County of East Sussex and in the Diocese of Chichester.

The Team includes the churches of St Mary the Virgin in the Ancient Town of Rye, the Church of the Holy Spirit in Rye Harbour, St Michael’s Playden, All Saints Iden, St Thomas’ in Camber and St Mary’s in East Guldeford, which is the only Sussex church on Romney Marsh.

The website for St Mary’s can be found here.

I became the Rector here on 25th November 2021 and, for nine years prior to that, I was the Vicar of St Mary’s, Hadlow and Golden Green in the Diocese of Rochester.

Before that I was the Curate of Woodchurch and before being ordained in 2008 I was a lawyer specialising in employment law. I have a number of interests, most of which seem to include boats and water. 

This website is intended primarily as a place for me to publish my sermons and a few other bits and pieces of writing.
