Edward Gilpin Bagshawe was born 12 January 1829 and educated at Oscott. He went to London University intending to study for the Bar, but in 1849 entered Brompton Oratory and was ordained priest in 1852. He was appointed third Bishop of Nottingham on 1 October 1874 and ordained on 12 November that year by Archbishop Manning.

Bishop Bagshawe continued the work of his predecessor and all areas of the diocese benefited from his attention. Numerous houses of religious women were founded, including Nazareth House Nottingham, and two congregations were founded, viz., the LittleCompany of Mary and the Sisters of St Joseph of Peace.

Bishop Bagshawe also established a major seminary for his clergy next to the Cathedral in 1883, which continued until 1902.

In 1901 Bishop Bagshawe's health was failing, and while in Rome in May that year he was encouraged to offer his resignation. As Titular Bishop of Hypaepa, Bishop Bagshawe went to live in the Blue Nuns' House at Hounslow. In 1904 he we named Titular Archbishop of Seleucia. He died in Hounslow 6th February 1915 at Isleworth. Some years later, Bishop Dunn decided to bury his predecessors in the Cathedral Crypt, and Archbishop Bagshawe's body was laid to rest in the Crypt of St Barnabas 16 December 1921."
