Bishop of Saint Edmundsbury and Ipswich

The current bishop is Martin Seeley. The Bishop's residence is the Bishop's House, Ipswich, Suffolk.

Under the Suffragan Bishops Act 1534, the title Bishop of Ipswich was created in 1536, but it fell into abeyance following the first holder surrendering the office in 1538. In 1899, the title was revived with two suffragan bishops of Ipswich were appointed to assist the diocesan bishop of Norwich. Through reorganisation in the Church of England, the Diocese of Saint Edmundsbury and Ipswich was established by Act of Parliament in 1913 under King George V. The bishop's and the diocesan offices are located in Ipswich, while the bishop's seat is located at the Cathedral Church of St James in Bury St Edmunds. Since 1934, the bishops of Saint Edmundsbury and Ipswich have been assisted by the suffragan bishops of Dunwich in overseeing the diocese.
