In The Times of May 23, 1836, there is a 3rd report from a Royal Commission on the Church of England, which makes recommendations on making new dioceses and tidying up boundaries. The main recommendations were
some of these got implemented quickly. some didn't.
were the provincial borders not aligned with the diocese borders back then?
As far as I can see, Kirkby Lonsdale and Kendal rural deaneries, as part of Richmond archdeaconry formed part of Ripon diocese in 1836, going to Carlisle in 1856, although Youngs contradicts himself. Can't figure out where Furness and Cartmel rural deanery went in 1836, it should have gone into ripon too, i'd have thought... Lozleader 21:47, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
And indeed there were lots of mergers such that the Anglican and Roman hierachy in Ireland are now very different. Find it interesting nontheless that in Ireland there are two people claiming to be Archbishop of Dublin, say, whereas in Great Britain the Catholics set up an entirely new hierachy and haven't tried to appoint an Archbishop of Canterbury.
House of Lords says "The Church of Ireland did obtain representation ... after the union... Of the Church of Ireland's ecclesiastics, four (one archbishop and three bishops) were to sit at any one time, with the members rotating at the end of every parliamentary session (which normally lasted approximately one year). The Church of Ireland, however, was disestablished in 1871, and ceased to be represented by Lords Spiritual."

There seems to be a bit of a hole in the article - the 'ancient' diocese list really starts at, or around, the conquest. For example, Lindisfarne, surely one of the most important ancient sees, is only mentioned in passing. Hexham also gets missed out, despite an article elsewhere on the Bishop of Hexham. I'm not really in a position to do this myself (as I have extremely limited knoweldege), but it is an important part of church history. Duncan ( talk) 19:18, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
Available at the main C of E site is: A Background Report for the Dioceses Commission (by Dr Colin Podmore). It's a very useful document indeed. D B D 15:37, 3 June 2011 (UTC)
Writing Historical development of Church of England dioceses#Colonial dioceses, I am listing a diocese's country next to it. What should one list as Jerusalem's "country"? Israel/Palestine? Help me, Manual of Style! D B D 21:31, 22 June 2012 (UTC)
