George Isaac Huntingford (1748 - 1832) was educated at Winchester College and New College, Oxford, where he became a fellow in 1770. After a spell as Curate of Compton, he returned to Winchester as a Master and became Warden in 1780, holding the post until his death in 1832. As a result of his friendship with the Prime Minister Henry Addington, who had been a pupil of his at Winchester, he became Bishop of Gloucester in 1802, moving to the see of Hereford in 1815. Throughout these years, however, he continued to live in the comfortable Warden's lodgings at Winchester.
