Crediton, diocese of. Carved out of the
Sherborne bishopric in 909, it initially covered all Devon and Cornwall, though from 931 to 1027
St Germans was the separate see for Cornwall. In 1050 Leofric moved the bishopric to
Exeter, in obedience to Leo IX's command for sees to be in larger towns. Crediton was the birthplace of
Boniface (680), the missionary to Frisia and Germany.
