Archdeacon of Cleveland
The Archdeacon of Cleveland is a senior ecclesiastical officer of an archdeaconry, or subdivision, of the Church of England diocese and province of York.[1] The Archdeaconry of Cleveland stretches west from Thirsk, north to Middlesbrough, east to Whitby and south to Pickering. It has a varied geography, including the southern parts of the conurbation of Teesside and the open moors of the North York Moors National Park.
History
[edit]Archdeacons occurred in the Diocese of York before 1093; before 1128, there were five serving simultaneously – probably each in their own area, but none occurs with a territorial title before 1133.[2] The title Archdeacon of Cleveland is first recorded before 1174 with Ralph, Archdeacon of Cleveland.[3] Of the five archdeaconries, Cleveland is one of three which has never split from York diocese.
People
[edit]The archdeaconry is led by the area Bishop of Whitby, Paul Ferguson[4] and by the Archdeacon of Cleveland, Amanda Bloor since 15 June 2020.[5]
Organisation
[edit]In common with other archdeaconries, Cleveland is further subdivided into deaneries:
- Guisborough
- Middlesbrough
- Mowbray
- Northern Ryedale
- Stokesley
- Whitby
List of archdeacons
[edit]- Some archdeacons without territorial titles are recorded from around the time of Thomas of Bayeux; see Archdeacon of York.
