Percy Warrington

The Reverend Percy Ewart Warrington (1889–1961) was an educationist and evangelical Church of England clergyman.

He was ordained a deacon in 1914 and priest in 1915 at Worcester Cathedral for St Matthew's Church, Rugby, Warwickshire.

[7] Warrington became secretary to the Church Trust Society, through which he founded a series of schools, typically by purchasing country houses and then converting them.

[9] The Trust ran into severe financial difficulties during the years of depression in the early 1930s and was rescued by the intervention of the Legal & General Assurance Society through a mortgage that was not paid off until 1980.

[12] Warrington was instrumental in the founding of the evangelical St Peter's College, Oxford, through financial assistance provided to Christopher Chavasse.

[14] Warrington was a vigorous supporter of the restoration of Pentonville Church, London, which was derelict after World War I.
