The Bishop of Crediton is an episcopal title which takes its name from the town of Crediton in Devon, England. The title was originally used by the Anglo-Saxons in the 10th and 11th centuries for a diocese covering Devon and Cornwall.[1][2] It is now used by the Church of England as the title of a suffragan bishop who assists the diocesan Bishop of Exeter.[3]
