Edward Michael Gresford Jones (1901-1982) became Bishop of Willesden in 1942 and was enthroned as 6th Bishop of St Albans on 28 September 1950, where he remained in office until 1970. Renowned for his administrative skills rather than his oratory, he spoke only once in the House of Lords making a passionate plea calling on legislation to ensure better welfare for pit ponies in Britain’s coal mines.
