CHURCH PATRONAGE
The Grocers’ Company has patronal links with thirteen churches across the UK:
ST, PETER'S, UGBOROUGH, PL7
Located fourteen miles from Plymouth and nine from Totnes, St Peter's, Ugborough was purchased under Dame Margaret Slaney's Trust in 1786. In 1991, the benefices of Ermington and Ugborough were united to form the Benefice of Ermington and Ugborough. The first incumbent was the Rector of Ugborough. The incumbent of the new benefice is presented in turns by the Crown, the Bishop of Exeter and The Grocers' Company jointly, who have the second, third and fourth turns respectively.
