From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Archdeacon of Chester is a senior
ecclesiastical officer in the
diocese of Chester . The area in which she, or he, has statutory duties is the Archdeaconry of Chester – those duties include some pastoral care and disciplinary supervision of the clergy in that area.
The archdeaconry was created before 1135 in (what was in 1222) the
Diocese of Coventry (that diocese was called Coventry and Lichfield from 1228 and then Lichfield and Coventry from 1539); it formed part of the
Diocese of Chester upon her creation in 1541 and remains so today.
