Campbell Richard Hone (13 September 1873 – 16 May 1967) was an eminent Anglican bishop in the second quarter of the 20th century.
He was born into an ecclesiastical family — his father was Evelyn J. Hone, sometime Vicar of Esher — educated at Blackheath Proprietary School and Wadham College, Oxford (where he was a Exhibitioner, and proceeded Oxford Master of Arts {MA(Oxon)}) and ordained in 1898.
After a period as Curate at Holy Trinity, Habergham Eaves (1898–1902), he was appointed Domestic Chaplain to Rodney Eden, Bishop of Wakefield (1902–1905). From 1905 to 1909 he was Vice Principal of Leeds Clergy School, becoming additionally an Examining Chaplain to Eden as Bishop of Wakefield (1907–1928); after Leeds, he was Vicar of Pellon (1909–1915) and then of Brighouse (1916–1920), during which time he became also an honorary canon of Wakefield Cathedral (1918–1920). In 1920 he crossed over to the Diocese of York, becoming Rector of Whitby (1920–1930) and a Prebendary of York Minster (1926–1930), and serving that diocese as a Proctor in Convocation (1925–1930).
