Born in Blodwell in Shropshire, he was the oldest son of Sir John Bridgeman, 3rd Baronet and his wife Ursula, daughter of Roger Matthews.[2] Bridgeman was educated at New College, Oxford and in 1713, he was called to the bar by the Inner Temple.[2] In 1723, he entered the British House of Commons, sitting for Shrewsbury in the next four years.[3] He succeeded his father as baronet on the latter's death in 1747.[4]
On 8 April 1719, Bridgeman married Anne Newport, third daughter of Richard Newport, 2nd Earl of Bradford.[5] They had three sons and two daughters.[4] His wife died in 1752 and Bridgeman survived her until 1764, aged 69; both were buried at Weston Park in the county of Staffordshire.[citation needed] His oldest son having predeceased him, he was succeeded in the baronetcy by his second son Henry, who later was raised to the peerage as Baron Bradford.[5]
