Bishop Hill was founded on November 21, 2006 by Andrew Montford author of The Hockey Stick Illusion. At first focusing on british politics Montford, after following a link from a blog posted by Tim Worstall to Climate Audit turned his focus to Climate Change from a Skeptical Viewpoint.

Involvement in "Climategate" controversy

A post on the blog led to the resignation of Philip Campbell, the editor in chief of Nature from the panel. In an interview with Chinese state radio when asked about the controversy, Campbell said that he believed nothing untoward had happened. The Guardian newspaper commented "The interview, posted on the Bishop Hill blog run by the climate sceptic Andrew Montford and shown on Channel 4 News, risked undermining Muir's claim that the inquiry team was impartial"
