Archdeacon of Westmorland and Furness

The Archdeacon of Westmorland and Furness is a senior ecclesiastical officer within the Diocese of Carlisle.[1] As such he or she is responsible for the disciplinary supervision of the clergy [2] within its four rural deaneries: Barrow, Windermere, Kendal and Furness.[3]

The archdeaconry of Westmorland was erected by Order-in-Council of 10 August 1847 from the Archdeaconry of Richmond,[4] but that Order did not come into effect until Hugh Percy (Bishop of Carlisle) died on 5 February 1856 (because he did not consent to the changes to his diocese). The Archdeaconry of Furness was erected by further Order-in-Council in 1884; they were subsequently merged to form the current archdeaconry of Westmorland and Furness. The incumbent is Vernon Ross.
