From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Archdeacon of Nottingham is a senior ecclesiastical officer in the
Church of England
Diocese of Southwell and Nottingham , who exercises supervision of clergy and has responsibility for church buildings within the Archdeaconry of Nottingham.
History
The ancient Archdeaconry of Nottingham was an extensive ecclesiastical jurisdiction within the
Diocese of York , England. It was created around 1100 – at which time the first archdeacons were being created across the nation – and comprised almost the whole of the county of
Nottinghamshire , and was divided into the four deaneries of Nottingham,
Newark ,
Bingham and
Retford . The archdeaconry remained as a division of York diocese for more than seven centuries until it was transferred by
Order in Council to the
Diocese of Lincoln on 5 September 1837.
[1]
The archdeaconry was transferred once more when it became part of the new
diocese of Southwell on 5 February 1884, along with the
Archdeaconry of Derby .
[2] it is now one of the two archdeaconries in the renamed
Diocese of Southwell and Nottingham , the other being the
Archdeaconry of Newark , which was formed by Order in Council on 11 June 1912 from the northern half of the Nottingham archdeaconry.
