Dioceses of the Church of England:
  Province of Canterbury
  Province of York

There are 42dioceses of theChurch of England.[1] These cover England, theIsle of Man, theChannel Islands and a small part ofWales. TheDiocese in Europe is also a part of the Church of England,[1] and covers the whole of continental Europe,Morocco and thepost-Soviet states.[2] The structure of dioceses within the Church of England was initially inherited from theCatholic Church as part of theEnglish Reformation.[3] During the Reformation a number of new dioceses were founded,[4] but no more were then created until the middle of the 19th century,[5] when dioceses were founded mainly in response to the growing population, especially in the northern industrial cities.[6] The most recent diocese to be established was theDiocese of Leeds, which came into being on 20 April 2014.[7] Prior to that, no new dioceses had been created since 1927. Leeds was created by combining three previous dioceses: theDiocese of Bradford, the Diocese of Ripon and Leeds, and theDiocese of Wakefield.[7]

The 42 current dioceses are divided into twoprovinces. TheProvince of Canterbury in the south comprises 30 dioceses and theProvince of York in the north comprises 12.[1] Thearchbishops ofCanterbury andYork have pastoral oversight over the bishops within their province, along with certain other rights and responsibilities.[8] Each diocese has one cathedral, except for the Diocese of Leeds, which has three that are considered co-equal. Of all the dioceses,Derby has the smallestcathedral:Derby Cathedral takes up only 10,950square feet (1,000 m2).[9] One diocese dates back to the 6th century, eight date back to the 7th century, two to the 10th century, five to the 11th century, two to the 12th century, five to the 16th century, seven to the 19th century, and ten to the 20th century. The territories administered by the various dioceses generally accord with thecounties as they existed before theLocal Government Act 1972.
