Crispin William Joynson-Hicks, (born 7 April 1933) the fourth Viscount Brentford, is a British aristocrat and member of the House of Lords.
Joynson Hicks and his wife Viscountess Brentford are on the evangelical wing of the church and opposed the ordination of the openly gay canon, Dr Jeffrey John, as Bishop of Reading. According to The Times:
- Significantly, the Church Society, which has led opposition to Dr John and Dr Williams, is headed by Viscount Brentford, an evangelical layman.
- His wife, Lady Brentford, was one of the evangelicals on the Archbishops' Council inherited by Dr Williams from his predecessor, Dr George Carey. She handed over to the former newspaper editor Andreas Whittam Smith, First Church Estates Commissioner, when she retired last month.[1]
Joynson-Hicks is President of the Church Society, a role also held by his father Lancelot Joynson-Hicks the 3rd Viscount Brentford before him.[2]
