In 1922, he moved to Wigan, and was made an Honorary Chaplain to the King. In 1934, he was recommended for the vacant see at Guildford but was unsuccessful. He became Dean of St Albans two years later. Noted for a ‘volcanic’ temperament, he was a fierce opponent of nuclear weapons, and he refused to hold a service of celebration in St Albans Cathedral at the cessation of the war with Japan in August 1945. He was described in his obituary as “a high church man and convinced Anglican”. (en)
