Bishop of Crediton

The Bishop of Crediton is an episcopal title which takes its name from the town of Crediton in Devon, England. Since 1897, it has been used by the Church of England as the title of a suffragan bishop who, along with the Bishop of Plymouth, assists the diocesan Bishop of Exeter in overseeing the Diocese of Exeter.

The title was originally used by the Anglo-Saxons in the 10th and 11th centuries for a diocese covering Devon and Cornwall.
