Archdeacon of Lindisfarne

The Archdeacon of Lindisfarne is a senior ecclesiastical officer in the diocese of Newcastle of the Church of England.

## History[edit]

The archdeaconry was formed by Order in Council on 2 September 1842 from part of the Diocese of Durham archdeaconry of Northumberland;[1] on 23 May 1882, the Diocese of Newcastle was created from those two archdeaconries. From 1842 to 2008, the Archdeaconry of Lindisfarne covered the deaneries of Morpeth, Alnwick, Bamburgh and Glendale, and Norham, and in 2008 this was extended to include Corbridge, Hexham and Bellingham.[2] In 2008, the role of Archdeacon of Lindisfarne became a full-time position for the first time in many years.
